HARISSA MARINADE
Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a bowl for marinating the Chicken, combine ½ of the harissa paste with a drizzle of oil and some seasoning. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel and toss through the marinade until well coated.
VEGGIE HEAVEN
Place the carrot and onion wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, season, and spread out evenly. Place the marinated Chicken on top of the veggies. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes. Place the halved baby tomatoes in a salad bowl with a drizzle of oil and some seasoning. Toss to coat and set aside. Place the drained Chickpeas in a bowl. Coat in oil, season, and set aside.
I DON’T MEAN TO ROAST BUT…
When the roast has been in for about 10 minutes, remove from the oven and give it a shift. Scatter over the Chickpeas, spread out in a single layer, and return to the oven for the remaining cooking time. On completion, the chickpeas should be crispy, and the carrots and onions should be cooked through and caramelised.
CRISP SALAD & SPICY DRESSING
Add the rinsed salad leaves and sliced Radish to the bowl of tomatoes. Toss until well coated and set aside for serving. In a small bowl, combine the sweet yoghurt dressing with the remaining harissa paste. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency and season to taste with salt.
GRAB A HEARTY HELPING
Lay out the juicy Chicken and drizzle with some harissa dressing. Alongside it, plate the carrot wedges, crispy Chickpeas, and charred onion. Serve the fresh salad on the side with more splatters of harissa dressing. Garnish with the chopped mint and enjoy the fruits of your labour!
