Add more liquid if needed to cover the chicken. Shio koji is primarily used as a marinade for poultry, meat, and seafood. It's made by fermenting a mixture of grain koji (cooked grain, most commonly rice, that has been inoculated with Aspergillus Oryzae and then dried), salt, and water to create a porridge-textured product with a sweet, funky aroma. As with other koji kin-derived ingredients like soy sauce and miso, shio koji lends savory. The fantastic thing about shio koji is that it doesn't alter the taste of the chicken - it just makes it taste more "chickeny!" It adds a depth of savoury flavour (umami) that is irresistible.
