Harissa Honey Chicken Recipe
Report
This harissa honey chicken is the most delicious honey glazed chicken ever. The sweet and sticky sauce is spiced with harissa, a North African paste that is super flavourful. You'll be licking the glaze off your fingers!

Ingredients
- 8 bone-in chicken thighs see notes
- 1 teaspoon each: sea salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- ½ cup honey
- ¼ cup harissa
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 clove garlic very finely minced
- minced cilantro to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Season both sides of your chicken thighs with salt and pepper and then place them in an oven-proof pan. Drizzle the oil over the top and then bake the chicken for 35-40 minutes, until it is cooked through. The juices should run clear and the internal temperature should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce. Whisk the honey, harissa, vinegar, and garlic in a small pot over medium-high heat. Bring it to a boil and continue to boil it, whisking constantly, until the sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat.
- Turn the oven to broil - see notes. Remove the chicken from the oven and carefully drain off all the liquid in the pan.
- Pour the harissa honey sauce over the chicken then return the chicken to the oven and broil for about 5 minutes, until the top of the chicken looks sticky and starts to darken. Serve the chicken with some cilantro over the top.
Notes
- You can make this with skin-on or skinless chicken thighs - your choice!
- If your oven broils at higher than 500 degrees Fahrenheit, don't broil this chicken or it will burn. Simply turn your oven up to 500 degrees and put the pan on a rack in the top third of your oven. You may need to leave it in the oven for a few extra minutes.
