Miso Glazed Chicken Thighs
Savory Miso-Glazed Chicken Thighs with Sesame and Scallions
Ingredients:
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3 tablespoons white miso paste
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish
Sliced scallions, for garnish
Directions:
In a bowl, whisk together the miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger until smooth.
Add the chicken thighs and toss to coat well. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Remove chicken from the marinade (let excess drip off) and place in the skillet. Cook for 5–6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Lower the heat and pour in any remaining marinade. Simmer for 1–2 minutes until slightly thickened.
Plate the chicken and spoon over the thickened glaze. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
