Ingredients:
For the Miso-Orange Glazed Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup white miso paste
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
- Sliced green onions, for garnish (optional)
For the Charred Baby Bok Choy:
- 4-6 baby bok choy, halved lengthwise
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Crushed red pepper flakes, for added spice (optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Miso-Orange Glazed Chicken:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, orange juice, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until well combined.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag, and pour the miso-orange glaze over them. Ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or ideally up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off.
- Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and nicely charred on the outside. Baste the chicken with the remaining marinade while grilling for extra flavor.
- Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish, if desired.
2. Prepare the Charred Baby Bok Choy:
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Brush the halved baby bok choy with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
- Place the bok choy cut side down on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until lightly charred. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
- Remove the charred baby bok choy from the grill and serve alongside the Miso-Orange Glazed Chicken.
3. Serve: Plate the Miso-Orange Glazed Chicken alongside the charred baby bok choy. Drizzle any remaining glaze over the chicken and vegetables if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious meal!
This recipe offers a perfect blend of savory, tangy, and slightly sweet flavors, with the charred baby bok choy adding a wonderful crunch and freshness to the dish.
