This sheet pan chicken dinner is full of flavor thanks to the high heat of roasting, grated ginger, nutty sesame oil, and miso, a fermented soybean paste traditional in Japanese cuisine. Keep miso paste in the fridge indefinitely and use it in marinades, glazes, salad dressings, and pan sauces. There are white, red, and brown varieties. We’ve called for white, the mildest of the bunch.

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

White miso

1 tbsp(s)

Low sodium soy sauce
