Roasted White Miso-Butter Chicken Recipe – Japanese Special

Thighs are the best part of the chicken, and this is a really quick way to make them delicious. The miso gives a delightful umami flavor that really saturates the chicken. The honey gives it a nice crisp and color. So very good and so easy.

How To Make Roasted White Miso-Butter Chicken

1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

2

Mix miso paste, butter, honey, and rice vinegar together in a bowl. Rub mixture on chicken thighs, making sure to rub under and over the skin. Place thighs in a large roasting pan with enough distance between them to roast evenly.

3

Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 30 minutes.
I use a disposable roasting pan.
