Miso-Honey Chicken and Asparagus Recipe (2024)

Delicious, easy weeknight dinner! Recipe as is would be way too salty, started with less than 2 TB of reduced sodium tamari and it was still too salty. Added water to cut/add volume. Personal preference, but chicken thighs baked at 425 for 30-35min always results in perfection.Foil the pan and keep all the marinade, it got a nice crisp on its own sans broiler. Gave the chicken about 15 min head start, then added asparagus. It was perfect with plenty of leftover sauce.

Any marinade that had raw meat in it can be brought to a boil and then spooned over the cooked food.

Similar to others, we baked the chicken instead of broiling. It took about 30-35 minutes at 400F to be cooked through, but still juicy and a browned on top. Added the juice of one lime to the sauce for added brightness.

So good! So easy! I did the chicken at 425 for 25 min, added the asparagus for the last 10, and put it under the broiler for 5 min at the end. Amazing! Next time I'm going to mix up the sauce beforehand so that it takes even less time to whip this up after work!

NYTimes Cooking posted a similar recipe for maple-miso glazed salmon with green beans. The green beans were tossed in oil and cooked on a sheet pan along with the salmon for approx 12-14 minutes at 400 and were perfectly done. All this is to say that I would think 10 minutes on broil should work fine for green beans, though keep an eye on them.

Fantastic, guests loved it. I doubled recipe and could not fit it all under the broiler evenly so I baked it at 425, added asparagus on a separate sheet about half way through, and finished the meat with a brush of marinade under the broiler til nicely charred. Delicious and beautiful.

Husband recovering from surgery and needed protein--he loved this. Great recipe + tips from Commenters. I baked the thighs at 415 (slow oven here) for 30 minutes, turning them about 20 minutes in. They were browned and perfectly cooked. I did not scrape off the marinade because I was not afraid of burning. Served with broiled broccolini and rice. And LIME! Lots of leftover marinade for more chicken or a salmon try.

Recipe advises to save half the marinade for serving and half to marinate

Excellent recipe! Used harissa instead of chili sauce and halved the amount. Tossed the asparagus in lemon olive oil, and sprinkled with garlic powder, otherwise as directed.

My family is not as crazy about aparagus as I am, so I'm thinking of substituting green beans in this recipe... Any cooking advice if I want to prepare them like this? In the absence of further data I'll probably steam them for a few minutes in advance.

This is also delicious with tofu! I didn't marinate it, just dipped slices in the sauce and baked with asparagus (not comfortable with broiling, after years without a working broiler). Used low-sodium soy sauce, thought the sauce was well balanced. Very tasty.

Bake at 400 degrees for 30-35 minutesAdd green beans (coated with marinade) for last 14 minutes

Definitely and broiler might not work to cook all the way thru before scorching even if you turn. Maybe use the marinade but bake instead of broil. You'll have to look up temps and time, am guessing 45 mins but depends on temp.

May need a bit longer than 10 min. Simple, great flavors.

This was so easy. Next time I will double the sauce then freeze half. The kids who never agree on anything had seconds. I made it exactly as written. Hardly any clean up either. Will try it on the grill.

Prepared as the recipe called for. Was concerned about cooking time, but cooking with chicken thighs made it easier to splay them out a bit and ensure they cooked in the 10 minute broil time without issue. Turned them in the oven at the five minute mark. Came out with perfect char marks and not burned. Really tasty and would recommend this miso sauce for a number of other broiled items (especially salmon)

I just made this for my family and we loved it.Only difference is I omitted the hot sauce and I cooked it at 450 for about 16 minutes. I came out tender and the vegetables were nice and crispy. Thank you for this easy and delicious recipe.

Delicious. Perfect.

I made it with chicken breast and sliced them in half to thin filets then followed the recipe as is; however, doubled the marinade. Such a delish and quick dinner!

Delicious! I had to leave out the spicy chile for my family but it was still fantastic. I was amazed at how tender the chicken stayed. For fun I included a few whole scallions with the asparagus and they broiled to perfection. 5 stars for us!

425 x 25 min, add asparagus x 10, then broil x 5Sub tahini for miso

Do you need to use aluminum foil on your baking sheet or would a silpat work just as well?

Super pantry recipe!I baked the chicken and added asparagus later in baking.Lazy Sunday I used powdered garlic and ginger to taste. I’ve also chopped jarred ginger slices but the powdered mixes better. Dried spices work better for small households that travel less food waste but still a tasty home cooked meal.

Took the leftover sauce, about 1/2,cup, and added it to 4 cups of boiling water, and made a great broth with a couple shakes of Dashi. Then ramen noodles, tofu, spinach, and nori. Versatile sauce!

This was spectacular. My kids devoured it and they don’t eat anything good lol

Great weeknight dinner

Loved this recipe but recommend cooking at 400 in over first, then turning on the broiler for the last 5mins.

Fantastic recipe as is and no changes necessary for my family. Many thanks to Yossy Arefi!

It was delicious but I don't understand the cooking time. I had to broil it for WAY longer (maybe 25 mins?) and had to eventually move the rack closer to the broiler. And that is with a Wolfe oven on BRL 3.

Excellent. Definitely make extra of the sauce—or start with a double batch. Leaving excess sauce in in the oven is fine as long as you don’t mind char/smoke.
