Ginger Grilled Chicken And Radishes With Miso Scallion Dressing Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH GINGER SCALLION SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the scallion sauce: Add the scallions, vegetable oil, vinegar, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil and garlic to a small bowl and stir to combine. Add 2 tablespoons of the ginger scallion sauce to a large bowl and keep the rest refrigerated until ready to serve the chicken.
• For the chicken thighs: To the bowl with the 2 tablespoons reserved ginger scallion sauce, add the oil, soy sauce, vinegar and sambal oelek. Whisk to combine, then add the chicken thighs. Stir to coat the chicken in the marinade. Let the chicken marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken to a paper towel-lined baking sheet, smooth-side up. Sprinkle the smooth side with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Transfer the chicken to the heated grill pan, seasoning-side down. Sprinkle the underside with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill for 10 minutes, rotating the chicken once. Flip the chicken and cook until it is 165 degrees F all the way through and has nice grill marks, an additional 7 to 10 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate.
• Serve the chicken with the remaining ginger scallion sauce.

GINGER-GRILLED CHICKEN AND RADISHES WITH MISO-SCALLION DRESSING

Steps:

• Season chicken on all sides with 2 1/2 tsp. salt and place in a large bowl. Add ginger beer, garlic, 3/4 cup vinegar, and 3 Tbsp. ginger to bowl and toss to combine. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.
• Meanwhile, whisk miso, 3/4 cup oil, 1 tsp. salt, and remaining 6 Tbsp. vinegar and 1 tsp. ginger in a small bowl. Mix in scallions. Let dressing sit at room temperature up to 1 hour, or chill up to 24 hours.
• Prepare a grill for high heat; brush grate lightly with oil. Grill chicken, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, 12-15 minutes. Transfer to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
• Toss radishes with remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl; season lightly with salt and pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred in spots, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to platter with chicken.
• Toss lettuce with about one-third of dressing in a large bowl. Drizzle another third of the dressing over grilled radishes. Serve remaining dressing alongside.

SPICY ROASTED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH MISO AND GINGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Pat chicken thighs dry and place in a large bowl.
• Combine garlic, ginger, lemon zest, miso paste, vegetable oil, sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and chili-garlic sauce in a food processor or small chopper; blend until a saucy red paste forms.
• Dump paste over the chicken and mix until well coated. Spread chicken in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

GINGER GRILLED CHICKEN SATAY

Steps:

• Slice chicken in half lengthwise to get thin pieces. Prick lightly using a fork or a knife to help tenderize.
• Combine soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, fish sauce, and lime juice in a large bowl, resealable plastic container, or large zip-top bag. Add chicken tenders, making sure marinade fully covers chicken. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from marinade and thread onto metal skewers.
• Meanwhile, add marinade to a small saucepan with cornstarch and bring to a boil. Boil until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off heat and transfer sauce to a small bowl for dipping.
• Grill skewers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the centers, about 5 minutes per side. Garnish with scallion and serve with sauce on the side.

MISO CHICKEN IN GINGER, LEEK AND SCALLION BROTH

Steps:

• Put chicken thighs in a large pot, seasoning well with salt and pepper on both sides. Add smashed garlic cloves, ginger slices, onion, 6 cups water (or chicken broth, if you prefer) and mirin, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, covered, for 30 minutes, until tender. Remove chicken to a baking dish. Strain broth into a bowl. Place back into the pot, and keep warm. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a small bowl, combine miso, gochugaru, grated garlic, grated ginger, vinegar and sugar. Add a little hot broth to thin, then smear mixture over chicken and coat well.
• Bake chicken until browned and glazed, about 20 minutes.
• While chicken is cooking, bring broth to a simmer, taste and adjust seasoning. Add leeks and cook until just done - soft, but still green, about 5 minutes.
• To serve, slice chicken into 1/4-inch pieces and divide among large soup bowls, then ladle broth on top. Spoon any remaining miso mixture from pan over chicken. Garnish with scallions.

GINGER-SCALLION CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cut the scallions in quarters lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-long pieces. You should end up with thin blades of scallions. Separate out the dark green tops from the pale green and white parts. (You don't have to be very thorough; some mixing of colors is fine.)
• Heat oil in a wok or 12-inch skillet over very high heat. When it's shimmering but not smoking, stir in chicken and salt. Cook, stirring almost constantly, until chicken is barely cooked and no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer chicken onto a serving plate, leaving the oil in the pan. Immediately scatter cilantro and scallion greens (not whites) over hot chicken.
• Return wok to medium-high heat. Make sure there are at least 2 tablespoons oil in the wok. If not, add more oil. Stir in ginger and cook until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in scallion whites, soy sauce and sugar, and cook for another 30 seconds (if using a skillet, remove from heat). Immediately spoon the contents of the pan evenly over chicken and herbs. Serve right away.

MISO DRESSING

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk vinegar, miso, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey and ginger. Gradually whisk in oil until blended.
