A simple marinade for this Miso Maple Glazed Chicken recipe can be used on any cut of chicken; wings, drumsticks or chicken breasts! 

Miso Maple Glazed Chicken - The Foodie Affair

Miso or miso paste is a savory Japanese seasoning made from soybeans. You might be familiar with miso soup, but don’t limit this fermented nutrient packed food to one favorite dish. Miso can be used in stir-fry, dressings, and marinades!

I used this simple marinade on drumsticks for a hearty appetizer, but this can also be served as a main dish with a side of sticky rice and fresh green beans!

The tangy and sweet flavors of this  sauce is quite versatile and can be used on a variety of meats or fish! In fact, I’m anxious to try this on salmon!

Be sure to use 100% pure maple syrup, not pancake or waffle syrup. Maple syrup is more expensive, but the difference in flavor is well worth the price!

Miso can be found in Asian markets (that’s where I bought mine) in the refrigerator section or many larger supermarkets will carry it in the organic section where tofu is stocked.

This finger-licking chicken is kid and adult approved 🙂

    I make a similar marinade but I do not use baking powder. What is the purpose for the baking powder?

      Baking powder is a easy way to tenderize your meat quickly! It helps break down the proteins, plus it acts as a thickener.

        I have known about baking soda acting as a tenderizer but did not know baking powder does the same thing, learn something new, thanks.

    I love the flavors happening here. I am the only fan on chicken legs in my house, but I’m constantly trying to find THAT recipe that will change the minds of the rest of them. I’m hoping this will do the trick!
