Cooking Guidelines
To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

1 Prepare the Ingredients
Stem shishito peppers and halve lengthwise.
Stem, seed, remove ribs, and cut red bell pepper into 1/2" dice.Pat chicken breasts dry and, on a separate cutting board, slice each chicken breast lengthwise into 1/2" strips. Season with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper. -
2 Heat Oil and Batter Chicken
Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add canola oil.
While canola oil heats, add tempura, ¼ cup water, and a pinch of pepper in a mixing bowl and stir until a thin batter forms.Add chicken strips to bowl and coat completely. -
3 Cook the Chicken
Line a plate with a paper towel.
Test oil temperature by adding a pinch of batter to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.Working in batches if necessary, lay chicken strips in hot oil and flip occasionally until crispy, golden brown, and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-6 minutes.Transfer cooked chicken to towel-lined plate. -
4 Cook the Vegetables
Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.
Add shishito peppers and bell peppers to pan and stir occasionally until lightly charred, 5-7 minutes.Add miso and stir constantly until incorporated, 1-2 minutes. -
