Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes prior to use.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, whisk together miso, sugar, sake, and mirin. Heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves and the sauce becomes smooth, whisking constantly. Remove from heat.

Step 3

Preheat grill to high heat (or high on broiler if using oven).

Step 4

Cut the chicken into 1 inch pieces. Remove the dark green part of the leeks, clean well, and cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces. Place the chicken and leeks alternately onto the skewers, starting and ending with chicken pieces.

Step 5

Grill, turning about every 2-3 minutes and brushing with the miso glaze, until the chicken is cooked through.

Step 6

Serve immediately.
