Charred Miso Chicken Tray-Bake

This miso-basted crispy chicken tray-bake is just something else! With its crunchy charred green beans, onion, aubergine, chilli, and sprinkles of sesame seeds. Served on red rice and drizzled with soy-sesame and lemon dressing. Due to seasonality, we’ve had to sub the limes for lemons but don’t fret, there’s no skimping on flavour!

  1. MISO CHICKEN & VEG

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a large bowl, mix together the miso paste, Oriental rub, ½ of the sesame seeds, chopped chilli (to taste), a good drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt. Mix until fully combined. Add in the chicken pieces, aubergine wedges, onion wedges, halved green beans and more oil, if required. Gently massage the miso mixture onto the chicken and the veggies until coated. Evenly lay in a roasting tray, making sure to use all the miso dressing. Place in the hot oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until the chicken and veg are fully cooked and starting to char.

  2. RICE, RICE BABY!

    Rinse the rice and place in a pot with 300ml of salted water. Pop on a lid and place over a medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 30-35 minutes until the water has been absorbed. If it starts to dry out, add more water in small increments to continue cooking. On completion, it should be tender but bouncy. Remove from the heat and drain if necessary. Cover with the lid.

  3. TOASTY SEEDS

    Place the remaining sesame seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.

  4. ZINGY SOY DRESSING

    In a small bowl, place the soy-sesame dressing with the juice of 1 lemon wedge and some lemon zest. Mix until fully combined.

  5. AS SIMPLE AS THAT

    Plate up some bouncy rice and top with the sticky, miso chicken and veg. Drizzle over the lemon soy-sesame dressing to taste, sprinkle over the toasted sesame seeds and serve with a lemon wedge. Get stuck in, Chef!
