Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Miso Marinade

    In a medium bowl, combine the miso paste, soy sauce, sake, mirin, brown sugar, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Whisk until smooth and all ingredients are well blended.

Chicken Marination

  1. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the miso marinade over the chicken, ensuring that each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with sesame oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Place the chicken on the hot grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Serving

  1. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the chicken and arrange it on a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve warm.
