Although I will make this dish before she can help I can't want to make this with my daughter Lily when she is older. What a wonderful tribute to your Dad.

I can't say I will try the brussel sprouts, but I needed a new chicken recipe and will be trying this tonight. I also loved paper wrapped chicken growing up. What a wonderful entry!

As for the amount of chicken in each package, it's probably a HEAPING teaspoon. But remember, you don't want to overfill the foil package, or else it will be difficult to fold the edges over tightly without some of the contents squirting out. It's kind of like making pot stickers or ravioli. You want to put in just enough filling, but not too much so that it starts gushing out. I hope you enjoy making these with your daughter. I have a feeling she will love the dish. Hi Cat,

Two questions. Do you have a preferred brand of hoisin sauce, or an idea of how to distinguish better ones? Also, I'm wondering about each foil package consisting of just 1 teaspoon of chicken-- should it be a tablespoon?
