Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Mix teriyaki sauce, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes together in a large bowl. Stir chicken into marinade to coat.
Step 3
Cover the bowl and refrigerate 3 to 4 hours or overnight.
Step 4
Place a piece of chicken in the center of a foil square. Fold the square tightly over chicken in a triangular shape. Fold open edges over chicken to enclose completely, pressing together tightly to seal. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces. Discard marinade.
Step 5
Carefully add packets to oil, frying in batches if necessary, until chicken is tender and cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain packets on paper towels and allow to cool slightly.
Step 6
To serve, tear open packets along sealed edges.
