It's not hard to make a great marinade with just a few ingredients, as long as one of those ingredients is the magical miso. This super savory paste, made from fermented rice, barley, and soybeans, isn't that hard to find. While the marinade is simple, the flavors are anything but.

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/3 cup creamed honey
1/4 cup red miso paste
1/4 cup orange juice
Red chili flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
1 skin-on whole chicken, cut up, breasts split

Steps:

  • For the marinade/glaze: In a small pot on medium heat, whisk together the honey, miso, orange juice, a shake or two of chili flakes and plenty of coarse ground pepper. Cook, whisking, until everything is combined and the liquid reduces and thickens a bit to a glaze consistency, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
  • For the chicken: Pour half of the marinade into a resealable plastic bag; reserve the other half for glazing. Add the chicken parts to the bag with the marinade and seal. Rest the chicken at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours.
  • When ready to grill, preheat a grill pan or half of a grill to medium heat.
  • Remove the chicken from the bag and pat dry with paper towels. Place on the indirect heat of the grill, skin-side down, and cook, covered, until the chicken easily releases from the grill, about 15 minutes. Then flip and grill on the other side until cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes more. In the last minute of grilling, brush each piece of chicken with a bit of the reserved glaze.

MISO CHICKEN



Miso Chicken image

Making a compound of unsalted butter and the salty, fungal deliciousness of Japanese miso paste is a surefire way of adding immense flavor to a simple weeknight meal. Here the mixture is spread over chicken thighs, which are then roasted to golden perfection. But you could easily use it on salmon or flounder, on corn or potatoes. The recipe calls for white miso, which is more mild than the aged version known as red miso. But you could certainly use red for a more intense result.

Categories     main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup white miso
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon rice vinegar (do not use seasoned rice vinegar)
Black pepper, to taste
8 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs, approximately 2 1/2 to 3 pounds

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Combine butter, miso, honey, rice vinegar and black pepper in a large bowl and mix with a spatula or spoon until it is well combined.
  • Add chicken to the bowl and massage the miso-butter mixture all over it. Place the chicken in a single layer in a roasting pan and slide it into the oven. Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, turning the chicken pieces over once or twice, until the skin is golden brown and crisp, and the internal temperature of the meat is 160 to 165 degrees.

GRILLED MISO CHICKEN



Grilled Miso Chicken image

My mom makes miso every year and this is one of the first things that we make with her miso. The recipe (with a variety of differences) is readily available, but I tend to go with the most simple versions of things, so this is what we use. The grilling/broiling instructions are a bit vague, but grills are different enough that the operator should use whatever method they think is most reasonable, just keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't burn. Burnt miso is not a good thing. Prep time includes marinating time.

MISO CHICKEN WINGS



Miso Chicken Wings image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     easy, appetizer

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pounds of chicken wings
1/2 cup miso
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
some freshly ground black pepper
a splash of hot water

Steps:

  • Cut 3 pounds of chicken wings into 3 sections; save the wing tips for stock. Toss the wings with a little neutral oil to keep them from sticking.
  • Heat a charcoal or gas grill; the fire should be moderately hot and the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat. Leave one side of the grill cooler for indirect cooking.
  • Put the wings on the cool side of the grill. Cover the grill, and cook, checking and turning once or twice, until most of the fat has been rendered and the wings are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • While the wings cook, combine 1/2 cup miso, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar and some freshly ground black pepper in a large bowl. Whisk, adding a splash of hot water to thin it out, until smooth.
  • When the wings are cooked, add them to the bowl with the sauce, and toss to coat. Now put the wings on the hot part of the grill, and cook, uncovered, turning as necessary, until they're nicely browned on both sides.

Tips for Making BBQ Miso Chicken:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh chicken thighs or breasts, and select a good quality miso paste. You can adjust the amount of miso paste to taste.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the flavors penetrate the chicken and make it more juicy and flavorful.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: Make sure to leave enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from burning on the outside while remaining raw on the inside.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

BBQ miso chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or backyard party. The combination of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook chicken, give BBQ miso chicken a try!
