Sesame Miso Chicken and Coconut Rice

A flavorful and comforting dish featuring tender miso-glazed chicken served with fragrant coconut rice.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. In a bowl, whisk together miso paste, honey, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger to make the marinade.
  2. Coat the chicken thighs in the marinade and let sit for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight).
  3. Rinse the jasmine rice until water runs clear. In a pot, combine rice, coconut milk, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and caramelized.
  5. Serve the chicken over coconut rice, garnished with sesame seeds and green onions.
