Had lovely bag of bok choy with a heads up from Patti I made and enjoyed this recipe. Other than going a touch easy on the miso I made as posted. The chicken tender, the barley full flavored and the bok choy amazingly good!

One of the best whole chicken recipes ever! And all done in one pot! The chicken was so tender and juicy, the barley was so full of flavour and the bok choy still had crunchiness to it. Perfect dinner! DH said "awesome"! Going into my Favvy File! Thanks Ellie for another keeper! Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.
