Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, cover the hijiki with cold water by 2 inches and let soak until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain the water and reserve the hijiki.

  2. Step 2

    Remove the skin from the chicken and discard. Shred the meat with your hands and set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Cook the noodles according to package directions. Rinse under cold water until cool and set aside.

  4. Step 4

    In a medium saucepan over high heat, whisk together the miso and 8 cups cold water. Bring to a boil and set aside.

  5. Step 5

    Divide the chicken, noodles, hijiki, spinach and scallions among 4 large bowls. Return the miso to a boil and pour an equal amount into each bowl, using a fork to stir the ingredients around in each bowl. Drizzle ½ teaspoon sesame oil into each bowl. Serve immediately.
