Mix all ingredients for Ginger Miso Sauce together in a small bowl.
Put chicken /salmon in a large zipped plastic bag and add the sauce to cover the protein completely. Seal the bag and marinade at least 2-3 hours in the refrigerator.
Heat an outdoor grill to high. Spray the grates with cooking spray or soak paper towel in olive oil and rub over grates several times until coated.
Place the chicken breasts or salmon on the hot grate, and grill the breasts until cooked, about 4 minutes per side. To test for doneness, poke the grilled protein with your finger. It should feel firm to the touch.
