HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.

02

In a medium bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, honey, and grated ginger to create the glaze.

03

Add the chicken pieces to the bowl with the glaze and toss to coat evenly. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

04

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken, broccoli florets, and bell pepper pieces alternately onto the skewers.

05

Grill the skewers for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender-crisp. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).

06

Serve immediately, optionally garnished with sesame seeds or chopped green onions.

Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, brush the skewers with a little extra glaze during the last few minutes of grilling. Do not reuse marinade that has touched raw chicken without boiling it first.

Easy Substitutions

Feel free to use other quick-cooking vegetables like zucchini, cherry tomatoes, or mushrooms. Chicken breast can be used instead of thighs, but adjust cooking time as needed to prevent drying out.
