Cooking Tips

• Make sure to rub the miso mixture all over the chicken, including under the skin, to ensure maximum flavor.
• If the chicken starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with foil to prevent it from burning.
• For extra crispy skin, you can increase the oven temperature to 450°F (230°C) for the last 10 minutes of cooking.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• Reheat the chicken in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, until heated through.
• Serve the crispy roast chicken and shallots with miso gravy alongside roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
