![]() 2 medium sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks.2 lemons, juice and zest from one lemon and one lemon sliced.1/4 cup olive oil plus, more for drizzling.The recipe is still delicious without it. So, while I think it would have added some creaminess to the meal, do not make an extra trip to the grocery store for the yogurt. And, while I had plain Greek yogurt to add to this recipe, I completely forgot to use it. I had both fresh mint and cilantro in my fridge so I added both as a topping as the final step, but either or neither would be just fine. Just don’t use them if that’s your preference. The olives are only added as a garnish at the end, not baked with the chicken itself. ![]() If don’t like olives, do not avoid this recipe (ahem Mallory and Chris). If you use breasts, you will need to increase your cooking time. I used chicken thighs to make the dish, but the original recipe says thighs or breasts. So whether it was hot in 2014 or, like me, you are just trying it for the first time 6 years later, I encourage you to buy it and use it to make Half Baked Harvest’s Sheet Pan Harissa Chicken for dinner. What rock was I apparently living under in 2014? Oh yeah, I had twin one-year-olds then. In my research, I found an article entitled “Harissa is SO Hot Right Now” published in 2014.

Harissa is a chili paste or spice blend mix used liberally in Tunisia, other North African countries and the Middle East to flavor all kinds of foods and dishes such as soups, stews, tagines, marinades, hummus, couscous, vegetables, dips etc. With 13 ingredients, I immediately decided it wasn’t worth it and for $1.96, I was able to order a bottle from Amazon. I even looked up if I could make the seasoning from a couple of the numerous spices I already own. (If you saw my spice cabinet, you would appreciate why I wanted to avoid another spice jar!). ![]() In fact, I almost did not make the recipe because it required me to buy another new spice at the grocery store. The flavors were amazing – I highly recommend you try it soon!Īdmittedly, before making this meal I had no clue what harissa seasoning was. I tried this Half Baked Harvest recipe on Monday for the first time. I love any recipe that reduces the number of dishes that must be cleaned post-meal.
