Shio Koji Dipping Sauce

Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the organic half chicken dry with paper towels. Rub the chicken with olive oil, then season it generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the seasoned chicken on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is crispy.

Shio Koji Dipping Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together the shio koji, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and chili flakes until well combined. Set aside.

Herbed Oil Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Herbed Oil

    In a small bowl, combine the chopped parsley, thyme, basil, and minced garlic. Pour the olive oil over the herbs and stir to combine. Allow it to sit for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld.
