Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

  • 6 Chicken Thighs
  • 1/2 cup Medium Miso Paste
  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce

Instructions

  • In a small mixing bowl combine soy sauce and miso paste. Stir until two ingredients are incorporated.
  • Pat chicken thighs dry using a paper towel. Cover chicken thighs with miso-soy mixture, using a pastry brush or hands. Be sure that each thigh is completely coated. Reserve any leftover miso marinade for brushing on the grill. Let chicken continue to marinade at room temperature while preparing a grill.
  • If using a charcoal grill, heat coals until white hot, and spreading coals to one side of the grill. If using a gas grill, turn to medium-high heat.
  • Place chicken thighs on grill, indirectly from heat to reduce the chance of burning. Slowly grill each thigh until they begin to brown, turning 2-3 times to prevent burning. Brush remaining miso-soy mixture on chicken halfway through cooking and repeat until the thighs an internal temperature of 165°. Remove from grill and serve immediately with scallions, cucumber and rice.
