Miso and Peach Chicken Salad
This Miso and Peach Chicken Salad is like summer in a bowl. Juicy sweet peaches combined with the umami from the miso makes the perfect marinade for chicken. The corn ribs add an extra layer of summer, and let's be real, fun.

Chicken & Sauce
- 4 medium chicken thighs
- 2 ripe peaches
- 2 tbsp white miso paste
- 1 tbsp sake (optional)
- 1 tsp tahini
Salad
- 1 whole corn on the cob
- 1/4 cucumber
- salad leaves
Blend one of the peaches with the miso and optional sake. Pour about a 1/3 over chicken and marinate in the fridge, the longer the better.
Mix in a teaspoon of tahini to the reserved sauce and keep refrigerated. This will be the dressing.
For the corn ribs - slice a whole corn in half, then quarter them lengthways. Coat generously with oil and salt then air fry on high heat (about 200°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Slice the cucumbers however you like - I scoop out the watery middle to keep the salad crunchy.
Once chicken is done marinating, heat a pan to a medium heat and add a generous glug of oil. Add the chicken and cook for about 10 minutes (flipping halfway), or until golden brown and cooked though.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes. In the meantime, slice up the other peach.
Assemble the salad, drizzle over the sauce and enjoy!
