Wrap the eggplants, chicken, 1 tablespoon of the miso mixture and the cheese in aluminium foil.

Put the wrapped ingredients in a frying pan and cover and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep coverd for 5 minutes in order to soften the eggplant. After waiting 5 minutes, uncover the pan and place on a serving plate.
comment:
The miso taste becomes very mellow and deep from the umami of the chicken and cheese. The eggplants become very soft and delicious.
