Ingredients

  • 8 pieces chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger, grated
  • 3 tbsp chili crisp oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp scallions, sliced
  • 1 to taste salt and pepper

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together white miso paste, maple syrup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger until well combined.
  3. Place chicken thighs skin-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil.
  4. Brush the miso-maple glaze evenly over the chicken thighs, coating both sides.
  5. Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and skin is golden and crispy.
  6. Remove from oven and drizzle generously with chili crisp oil.
  7. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced scallions. Serve immediately with your choice of rice or vegetables.
