Ingredients
For The Harissa Chicken Tacos
- 1 tablespoon harissa spice blend
- 1 ½ teaspoons paprika sweet, not smoked
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- ¾ teaspoon cumin
- ¾ teaspoon black pepper cracked
- 2 lbs chicken breast boneless, skinless
- 1 sweet onion quartered, large
- 2 cups romaine lettuce chiffonade
- 1 cup feta cheese
- 6 Naan flatbread torn in half
For The Yogurt Sauce
- ⅓ cup yogurt plain, Greek
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch salt sea salt
- water as needed
Instructions
- Prepare a grill to medium-high heat and brush grates with oil.
- In a small bowl, add all the spices and carefully whisk to thoroughly combine. Place chicken breasts between sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until even in thickness. Coat chicken with a thick layer of the harissa seasoning mix, then place on the grill, evenly spaced, and cook for 4 minutes per side, or until a meat thermometer registers 165 degrees. Remove from the grill, wrap in foil, and let rest.
- While the chicken rests, place the onions and peaches on the grill and let cook until they lightly caramelize, around 5-10 minutes. Remove from grill and slice into thin strips.
- In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, cumin, cinnamon, and pinch of salt. Slowly stir in water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until yogurt can be drizzled. Adjust seasoning as needed and set aside.
- To prepare the tacos, slice the chicken into thin strips and distribute between the 12 torn naan flatbreads. Add a few slices of peaches and onion, then sprinkle with romaine lettuce and feta cheese. Drizzle with yogurt sauce and enjoy!
