    How to Make Miso-Garlic Chicken Breasts

    1. Prepare Chicken Brine

    In a large bowl, dissolve 1 tablespoon of fine sea salt into 4 cups of cold water, then stir in 2 tablespoons of plain whole-milk yogurt. Submerge the chicken breasts in the brine and let them sit for 15 minutes, ensuring they're fully immersed.

    2. Create Spice Paste

    Melt a quarter cup of unsalted butter. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of onion powder, 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, 2 teaspoons of chipotle powder, and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.

    3. Season and Roast Chicken

    After brining, take out the chicken and pat it dry. Spread the spice paste all over the chicken breasts. Heat the oven to 425 degrees and roast the seasoned chicken in a foil-lined baking dish for about 30 minutes, until golden-brown and the internal temperature reads 165 degrees.

    4. Prepare Miso-Garlic Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt another quarter cup of unsalted butter. Stir in 4 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of lemon zest, and a half teaspoon of black pepper. Then blend in 1 tablespoon of red miso, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and a splash of water. Finally, stir in the pan juices from the roasted chicken.

    5. Serve

    Slice the rested chicken breasts and arrange them on a plate. Drizzle with the miso-garlic sauce and garnish with minced scallions or chives.
