A creative idea, a mild rebellion, and a serious craving turned into this beautiful plate of golden deliciousness. This chicken and frites dish begins with a braise and ends with a sauce that tastes as though it was planned all along. The chicken cooks low and slow in a savory miso broth until tender, while the flavorful braising liquid waits to be transformed.

In a mortar, fresh herbs, chilis, and garlic are crushed into a fragrant, rustic paste, then loosened with lime juice, olive oil, and the reserved miso braising liquid. The result is a chimichurri that’s bright, spicy, salty, and deeply savory—perfect spooned over the chicken and served alongside or atop a pile of homemade, crisp, golden frites. It’s a dish built on contrast: rich and fresh, tender and crunchy, comforting and lively.
