Instructions

Prepare Ingredients

Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Slice the green onions for garnish.

Pro tip: Prepping all ingredients before cooking ensures a smooth process.

Cook the Onion and Garlic

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Pro tip: Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.

Brown the Ground Chicken

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground chicken. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.

Pro tip: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Add Miso and Curry

Stir in the miso paste and curry powder, ensuring the chicken is well coated with the flavours.

Pro tip: Miso paste can be dissolved in a little warm water before adding for easier mixing.

Simmer with Broth

Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and sugar. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavours to meld.

Finish and Serve

Remove from heat, sprinkle with sliced green onions, and serve hot.

Pro tip: For added texture, top with toasted sesame seeds.
