Ingredients
¼cup50%-less-sodium tamari (see Tip) or low-sodium soy sauce
¼cupmirin
2tablespoonstoasted sesame oil
1tablespoonlight brown sugar
2teaspoonsminced fresh ginger
1clovegarlic, minced
1poundboneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
2tablespoonswater
1teaspooncornstarch
6ouncesshishito peppers
2teaspoonstoasted sesame seeds
1scallion, thinly sliced
Directions
Preheat grill to medium-high.
Combine tamari (or soy sauce), mirin, sesame oil, brown sugar, ginger and garlic in a medium bowl. Transfer half the mixture to a small saucepan. Add chicken to the bowl and toss to coat. Let marinate, stirring once or twice, for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring the marinade in the pan to a boil. Whisk water and cornstarch in a small bowl; add to the pan. Cook, whisking, until the sauce is bubbling and thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
Thread peppers crosswise onto 3 skewers and the chicken onto the remaining 3 skewers. (Discard any remaining marinade.) Oil the grill rack. Grill the chicken, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 165°F, about 10 minutes. Grill the peppers, turning occasionally, until charred, 2 to 3 minutes.
Brush the chicken and peppers with the reserved sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallion.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
