Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

Marinade

  • 3 tablespoons white miso paste (natural)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey (natural)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced (fresh)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the white miso paste (natural), soy sauce (natural), apple cider vinegar, honey (natural), minced fresh garlic, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, sesame oil (natural), grated fresh ginger, and freshly ground black pepper until smooth and well combined.
  2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. Seal or cover, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for deeper flavor.
  3. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure a hot roasting environment that crisps the skin while keeping the meat juicy.
  4. Roast the Chicken: Arrange the marinated chicken thighs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or a wire rack. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the skin is golden and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  5. Rest and Serve: Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute for juicy, tender Roasted Miso Chicken Thighs.

Notes

  • Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels before marinating to ensure crispier skin.
  • Marinate overnight or at least 4 hours for best flavor.
  • Let chicken sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before roasting to cook more evenly.
  • Use a wire rack when roasting to allow air circulation and keep skin crispy.
  • Check internal temperature using a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking.
