PAPER WRAPPED CHICKEN    

(Double the Recipe for 8 people)
3  large whole chicken breasts, boned, skinned, and sliced in small pieces.

Marinate overnight in:
3 tablespoons catsup                                                6 tablespoons salad oil
¼ teaspoon MSG (Accent) *(I didn't use)               3 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ teaspoon NG heunafun (Chinese Five Spice)     1 teaspoon salt                     
2 teaspoons cornstarch                                            1 tablespoon Hoi Sein Sauce

Put all the marinade ingredients in a jar and mix well.  Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces and stir to coat.  Marinate in glass container (no metal).  Wrap 2 or 3 pieces of chicken in 4-inch squares of foil.  Seal the edges well.  Roast 17-18 minutes at 350̊.  Put foil under the chicken as you roast because the sauce will leak and burn on the pan.

*If you do not want to wrap the chicken in foil, you can cook the chicken in a covered casserole dish for 30 minutes.

We have this for Christmas Eve, served with rice, we also have a meal of appetizers. It is a fun meal with the individually wrapped chicken. It is one of our families favorites. Other appetizers our family likes are sweet and sour meatballs, Scandinavian meat balls, little smokies wrapped in bacon, cheese ball, vegetable tray, shrimp and cocktail sauce.
