Higgs production is an interesting process to look for effects of new physics beyond the Standard Model. However, the current experimental analyses cannot disentangle the effects of a modified top-Higgs coupling on the one side and of new particles in the gluon fusion process on the other side. We consider the production of a very boosted Higgs together with a jet to disentangle the two contributions. We thus obtain an alternative channel to determine the top-Higgs coupling independent of the tth channel. Finally we apply this method to natural supersymmetry and composite Higgs.
