Grilled Miso Honey Chicken

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Miso Honey Chicken.

1. Step 1

   Start by creating a delicious marinade in a mixing bowl.

2. Step 2

   Combine white miso and honey, then slowly whisk in rice vinegar, hot sauce, and a tablespoon of kosher salt until the mixture is mostly smooth.

3. Step 3

   This blend will infuse your chicken with incredible flavor.

4. Step 4

   Next, take your chicken halves and make 3 to 4 slashes in the legs and thighs.

5. Step 5

   This little trick helps the marinade soak in beautifully.

6. Step 6

   Coat the chicken generously with the marinade, ensuring every nook and cranny is covered, and then let it chill in the refrigerator for anywhere between 2 to 12 hours.

7. Step 7

   The longer, the better for that deep flavor! Once your chicken has marinated, give it a gentle flip in the bowl and sprinkle a bit more kosher salt on top for an extra kick.

8. Step 8

   Now, it’s time to fire up your grill! Preheat it to 350°F (175°C) using indirect heat.

9. Step 9

   When the grill is ready, place the chicken on it, cover, and let it cook for 20 minutes.

10. Step 10

    After that, flip the chicken over, cover again, and grill for another 20 minutes.

11. Step 11

    To keep the flavors vibrant, brush any excess marinade over the chicken as it cooks.

12. Step 12

    You’ll know it’s done when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each thigh reads 165°F (74°C), which should take an additional 5 to 10 minutes.

13. Step 13

    Finally, serve your beautifully grilled chicken with lemon wedges sprinkled with a dash of cayenne pepper.

14. Step 14

    As you cut into the chicken, squeeze that spicy lemon over the top for a burst of flavor that will elevate your meal.

15. Step 15

    Enjoy every juicy bite!.
