MISO-YOGURT CHICKEN SKEWERS WITH GREEN OLIVES AND DATES
The key to the juiciest chicken? A yogurt marinade! Yogurt in the marinade makes chicken thighs super tender while the miso makes them flavorful. The seared chicken is paired with spiced couscous and a mixture of sauteed onions, olives and dates. The best part? The miso-yogurt mixture also doubles as a dipping sauce. Feel free to swap in chicken breasts for the thighs, if you prefer white meat.

Steps:
- If using wooden or bamboo skewers, soak 8 in water for at least 15 minutes before threading to ensure they don't burn.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Using a sharp knife or kitchen shears, cut the chicken thighs in half lengthwise. Season both sides with salt and set aside.
- Stir together the yogurt, garlic, miso, honey, lemon zest, half of the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large bowl. Reserve half of the mixture in a separate small bowl to use as a dipping sauce. Add the chicken to the large bowl, toss to combine and let marinate while you prepare the remaining ingredients (see Cook's Note).
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the remaining oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until it starts to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the olives and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the dates and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and add the remaining lemon juice. Stir to combine and set aside.
- Melt the butter with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds, cumin seeds and cinnamon. Cook, stirring, until fragrant and toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous and a generous 4-finger pinch of salt. Cover, remove from the heat and let the couscous sit until all the liquid has been absorbed, 5 to 6 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
- Meanwhile, heat a large, heavy skillet, griddle or grill pan over medium-high heat until smoking. Thread the chicken onto 8 skewers. Spread any marinade left in the bowl over the chicken so it's evenly covered. Drizzle with olive and evenly coat the surface with a brush or paper towel. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook, turning the skewers every 3 to 4 minutes, until the chicken is browned and cooked through, 14 to 16 minutes. If the chicken sticks to the pan, wait to move it until it releases easily.
- Divide the skewers among plates. Put a generous scoop of couscous on each and top the couscous with the onion mixture. Place a dollop of the reserved yogurt sauce alongside, for dipping. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Make the green miso marinade. Place the basil, parsley, and pine nuts in a blender and blend at high speed until smooth. While the blender is running, slowly add the olive oil, pouring it in a steady stream, until it is blended together. Add the miso soup and roasted garlic and blend again until smooth.
- Trim any excess fat from the outside of the chicken breast. Cut the the thin end of the breast into a 2-inch (5-cm) wide piece. Cut the remaining piece lengthwise. Then cut the resulting lengths in half. Cut the pieces of breast so that you end up with 25 even bite-sized rectangular pieces. Starting with the thinnest pieces of meat, pinch the meat so that the shiny side faces up and skewer directly through the middle of the meat. Repeat, being sure that the shiny side is facing up and that you are skewering directly through the middle of the meat, until you end up with five skewers with five chunks of chicken per skewer. Each skewer should weigh about 1½ ounces.
- Place the prepared skewers in a shallow baking dish in a single layer. Cover with the prepared marinade, cover, and chill for at least one hour.
- Start with the smooth-side down over high heat, grilling until light brown, 2-3 minutes. Rotate ¼ turn, cook on each side until lightly colored, about 1 minute per side. Once three sides are colored, finish cooking on the last side until dark brown, about 2 minutes. Spray with sake and lightly season with salt to finish. Garnish by adding one lemon wedge to each skewer before serving.
GRILLED CHICKEN TERIYAKI SKEWERS WITH MISO RANCH
If 'teri' means 'shine,' and 'yaki' refers to grilling, then these chicken skewers are the poster children for teriyaki. Marinated in soy sauce, sake, and mirin, the chicken is grilled to sweet, smoky perfection and dipped in a refreshing, herby miso 'ranch' sauce that'll send your summer cookout guests into a frenzy. The only bottles not invited to this party are bottled teriyaki sauces! Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MISO-GARLIC SAUCE
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are known for becoming dry, but brining them before cooking helps retain moisture. The chicken is soaked in cold, salted water to which a small amount of whey or yogurt is added. (The lactic acid and phosphates in the dairy help with moisture retention.) However, the star of this recipe isn't the chicken: It's the sauce, made from miso, plenty of garlic and a good amount of lemon and leftover pan juices. Just take care when salting it: Miso is salty by nature, and lemon juice tends to heighten its brininess. Round out the meal by pairing it with white rice, or a vibrant salad.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 500 degrees. Line a 9-by-13-inch high-heat baking dish with aluminum foil. In a large bowl, stir 1 tablespoon salt and the yogurt into 4 cups cold water. (The brine helps the chicken retain its moisture, for juicier breasts.) Add the chicken and let sit for 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together butter, onion powder, garlic and chipotle powders, and black pepper until they form a paste.
- After 15 minutes, drain the breasts, discarding liquid. Pat dry, transfer to the baking dish, and spread the paste all over the chicken.
- Roast until the top is golden brown and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees, about 30 minutes. If chicken is darkening too quickly, tent loosely with foil. Let the chicken cool, covered, for 5 minutes. Reserve the pan juices.
- About 10 minutes before the chicken is done, prepare the miso-garlic sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Remove from the heat and stir in garlic, lemon zest, black pepper and miso. Return to the heat and add the lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water, then mix until a velvety sauce forms. Remove from heat and stir in the reserved pan juices from the chicken. Taste and season with salt as needed.
- To serve, either slice the chicken breasts across the grain or keep them whole. Pour the sauce over the chicken and garnish with the minced scallions or chives. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Mix first 7 ingredients and 1 teaspoon soy sauce in large bowl. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.

Working in batches, suspend skewers across bricks, allowing skewer ends to rest on bricks (meat will not touch grill). Cook until golden, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes. Brush with soy sauce mixture and cook until chicken is cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Brush with more soy sauce mixture; transfer to plates. Sprinkle with shichimi togarashi.

Yield Makes 5 skewers
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Prepare the marinade by placing the barley miso, mirin, sake, yuzu skin, sesame seeds, sesame oil, and soy sauce in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Reserve in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- Carefully remove the small tendon from the underside of each chicken fillet by running the tip of the knife blade just under the visible part of the tendon. Place the fillet on the cutting board. Pinching the end, run the knife along the tendon in a downward motion until removed. Repeat on the remaining fillets. Place in a shallow baking dish, and cover with the marinade, tossing to coat completely. Marinate for 1-2 hours.
- Starting at the wider end, cut each chicken fillet into three pieces to make a total of six pieces. Move one of the larger end pieces to the side of the smaller pieces. Starting with the smaller pieces at the bottom of the skewer, pinch the meat so the rounded, smooth side faces up. Insert the skewer directly through the middle of the meat. Continue skewering the rest of the fillet pieces, working up in size, keeping the smooth side of the meat facing up. Repeat until you have five identical skewers, each weigh about 1½ ounces each.
- Start with the smooth side down over high heat, grilling until light brown, 1-2 minutes. Rotate ¼ turn, cook on each side until lightly colored, about 1 minute per side. Once three sides are colored, finish cooking on the last side until light brown, 1-2 minutes. Spray with sake and lightly season with salt to finish. Garnish with yuzu zest and a squeeze of fresh yuzu juice.
