BBQ Harissa Chicken with Grilled Vegetables Recipe
If you like your chicken a little bit spicy, with a whole lot of smokey flavour, you’ll love our harissa chicken recipe! It’s the perfect mid-week dinner recipe to cook up when you want something tasty, as it’s easy to prepare and is ready in just 25 minutes.
The harissa marinade gives the chicken a peppery, tangy, smokiness that goes perfectly on the barbeque. The capsicum and corn are the ideal crunchy accompaniments for this chicken harissa, and the fresh mixed leaves bring it all together for a quick and easy taste sensation. For best results, let the harissa marinade work its magic overnight, but if you’re pressed for time and want it now, give it about an hour.
