Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 lb bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and drunmsticks
kosher salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
5 garlics, minced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
3 tablespoons harissa paste
2 lemon juices, from 2 lemons, plus 1/4 cup (60 ml) divided
1 ½ lb yukon gold potato, cubed
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 cup greek yogurt
½ cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons honey
½ cup fresh dill
1 tablespoon sumac
2 leeks, white and light green parts, halved lengthwise, rinsed, and thinly sliced into half-moons
1 lemon zest

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken: Add the chicken to a large bowl and season with the salt, pepper, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, harissa paste, and the juice of 2 lemons. Toss until the chicken is well coated, then cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Add the potatoes to half of a baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, and the parsley and toss to coat. Arrange the marinated chicken pieces on the other side of the baking sheet.
  • Roast the chicken and potatoes for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, salt, pepper, parsley, honey, dill, sumac, and remaining ¼ cup (60 ml) lemon juice. Stir well until smooth, the set aside.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven, toss the potatoes, then spread the leeks and lemon zest in an even layer over the potatoes.
  • Return to the oven for another 20 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly crispy.
  • Serve the chicken over the potatoes and leeks and drizzle with the yogurt sauce.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best chicken dish he's ever had.

I'm not a big fan of harissa, but this dish was still really good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the leeks and potatoes were very flavorful.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out terrible. The chicken was tough and the leeks and potatoes were undercooked. I would not recommend this recipe.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.

I found the harissa to be a bit too spicy for my taste, but the rest of the dish was delicious. I would recommend using less harissa if you don't like spicy food.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the leeks and potatoes were delicious. I think I would add more liquid to the dish next time.
