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.

MISO BUTTER ROASTED CHICKEN



Miso Butter Roasted Chicken image

I love this recipe for its simple front-end prep. Spatchcock the chicken yourself or ask your butcher to spatchcock it for you. Then the only work left to do is to chop the veggies. Once it's in the oven, there's ample time to set the table and talk. -Stefanie Schaldenbrand, Los Angeles, California

Roasted Winter Squash With Miso Glaze image

Winter squash, already sweet and caramelized from roasting, makes as delicious a partner for miso glaze as eggplant.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large butternut squash (about 2 pounds)
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon mirin
1 tablespoon sake
2 tablespoons white or yellow miso
1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet (or 2 if necessary) with parchment. Peel the squash, cut in half and scrape out the seeds and fibers. Slice 1/2 inch thick and place in a large bowl. Season with a little salt if desired and toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the sesame oil. Lay the slices in one layer on the baking sheet(s).
  • Roast the squash for 25 to 30 minutes, turning the slices over every 10 minutes, until the slices are tender all the way through and lightly colored.
  • Meanwhile, heat the broiler and make the glaze. To make the glaze, combine the mirin and sake in the smallest saucepan you have and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 20 seconds, taking care not to boil off much of the liquid, then turn the heat to low and stir in the miso and the sugar. Whisk over medium-low heat without letting the mixture boil until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sesame oil.
  • Remove the squash from the oven and brush each slice with the miso glaze. Place under the broiler, about 2 inches from the heat, and broil for about 1 minutes, or until the glaze begins to bubble and looks shiny. Remove from the heat. Allow to cool if desired or serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. A whole chicken is best for this recipe, but you can also use chicken breasts or thighs. If using a whole chicken, make sure it is about 3-4 pounds.
  • Use high-quality miso paste. Miso paste is the key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure you use a good quality paste. Look for a paste that is made with whole soybeans and has a deep, umami flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables. Acorn squash is a classic choice for this recipe, but you can also use other vegetables, such as butternut squash, sweet potatoes, or carrots.
  • Make sure the chicken is cooked through before serving. The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
