Ingredients

Scale

For the Marinade:

  • 1/4 cup white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

For Garnish (optional):

  • Sliced green onions
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until well combined.
  2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is evenly coated. Cover or seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 375-400°F (190-200°C).
  4. Grill the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and have grill marks.
  5. Serve: Transfer the grilled miso marinated chicken to a serving platter. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
