Miso Chicken Sandwiches With Ginger Mayonnaise Food

SESAME-MISO CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Put sesame paste, miso, vinegar, mirin, ginger, sugar and lemon zest in a small mixing bowl. Whisk together until well combined. Whisk in sesame and vegetable oils. Check seasoning and adjust with salt, pepper and cayenne, if using. You should have about 2/3 cup dressing. If it seems too thick, thin with a tablespoon or 2 of water.
• Remove skin from chicken and pull all the meat from the carcass. With fingers or a knife, shred all the chicken meat into 1-inch strips and put in a medium mixing bowl. (Refrigerate or freeze any remaining skin, fat, bones and cartilage for making broth.) You should have about 4 cups shredded chicken.
• Separate the lettuce leaves and arrange on a large platter, leaving space for the chicken at the center, then scatter with cucumber slices.
• Gently toss the shredded chicken with salt and pepper. Pour all but a few tablespoons of dressing over the chicken and gently toss to coat. Transfer dressed chicken to center of platter and nap with remaining dressing. Sprinkle scallions and sesame seeds on top and serve.

JAPANESE MISO SALMON SIDE (BBQ OR BAKE)

Steps:

• Mix together the marinade ingredients in a small bowl until smooth.

• Scrape the marinade off (do not rinse with water) and leave the salmon to come to room temperature
• Preheat barbecue plate side on MEDIUM LOW. Leave it to heat up for a good 10 to 15 minutes - another tip for cooking salmon perfectly.

MISO CHICKEN SANDWICHES WITH GINGER MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• For the chicken: Heat the broiler and line a broiler pan with foil, or you can grill the chicken.
• Stir the miso, soy sauce, and ginger together and brush both sides of the chicken with the mixture.
• Broil on the foil lined pan, 6 inches from the heat, or grill, turning once about 2 minutes per side until cooked through, set aside.
• For the mayonnaise: Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, chili or hot sauce and sesame oil together in a bowl, set aside.
• Assemble the sandwiches: Slice the chicken in pieces.
• Cut the rolls open and spread the mayonnaise on the 2 halves of each, layer the chicken, avocado and cucumber slices, and sprouts on each roll.

STEAK & SPRING ONION SANDWICH WITH MISO MAYO

Steps:

• Put the miso for the marinade in a dish large enough to hold the steaks in a single layer and mix in all the ingredients. Put the steaks in the marinade and turn them over several times. Cover, put in the fridge and leave for an hour or so.
• To make the mayonnaise, mix together the egg yolk and mustard in a bowl. Continuously beating with a hand whisk or an electric beater, start adding the oil very slowly, a drop at a time. Wait until each drop is amalgamated and the mixture has thickened before adding the next. As it develops more body, you can add the oil in slightly larger quantities. Add the garlic, miso and rice vinegar, then add the lime to taste. Finally, mix in the chilli. Cover and set aside. This will make more than you need, but it will keep in the fridge for three days.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan until it's really hot. Lift the steaks out of the marinade, shaking off the excess. Cook quickly on each side for 30 seconds, then turn the heat down a little and cook for a further 2 mins (for rare steaks), turning them and basting over some of the leftover marinade. Set aside to rest. Clean the pan.
• Warm the ciabatta in the oven, then slice horizontally. Spread the bread with a big dollop of the mayonnaise. Pile the spinach onto half of the slices.
• Heat the frying pan again and brush the spring onions with oil. Fry them over a medium heat, turning all the time, until the base is tender, around 10 mins. They will really collapse but that's okay - just don't burn them.
• Cut the steaks into thick slices (you can leave them whole if you like, but I prefer them sliced), put them on top of the leaves, top with the spring onions and sesame seeds and top with the other half of the bread. Serve immediately.

GINGER-MISO MAYO

Steps:

• Mix 3/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons miso paste, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger and 2 teaspoons honey.

• Transfer to a platter or individual plates. Drizzle over the remaining dressing and garnish with the cilantro, mint and toasted sesame seeds.

MISO PASTE HAM SANDWICH

Steps:

• Spread the miso paste and wasabi paste onto one side of one slice of bread. Spread the mayonnaise onto the other slice. Layer the ham, lettuce and cheese over the mayonnaise, and top with the other slice of bread, with the miso facing the inside.
