Baked Harissa Chicken Thighs
Report
These baked harissa chicken thighs have incredible flavor thanks to the spicy harissa chili paste! They come out tender and juicy and so full of flavor. Greek yogurt helps keep the chicken from drying out while also balancing the heat.

Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- ¼ cup harissa paste
- 2 tablespoons nonfat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon fresh squeezed lime juice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon cracked pepper
- minced parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Add the harissa, yogurt, olive oil, garlic, lime juice, salt, and pepper to a medium bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat them in the seasoning.
- Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange chicken thighs on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a thermometer reads 165 degrees.
