1 spsk. harissa
1 spsk. honning
1 spsk. olivenolie

Rør harissa sammen med honning, olivenolie, koriander, spidskommen, revet muskatnød, pressede hvidløg og salt. Dup kyllingelårene tørre med køkkenrulle, og smør dem grundigt ind i marinaden. Sæt derefter kyllingen i køleskabet, og lad lårene marinere i minimum 30 minutter, dog gerne længere, eksempelvis natten over. Tænd ovnen på 175°, og fordel de marinerede kyllingelår på en beklædt bageplade. Sæt bagepladen i ovnen i 15-20 minutter, indtil lårene er gennemstegte og flot gyldne.

Harissa-marinated chicken thighs

Harissa is a chili sauce that is used in many recipes in Morocco and Tunisia, among others. The sauce is the not-so-secret ingredient in the marinade for these harissa-marinated chicken thighs. It helps to add flavor and a subtle chili kick to the juicy chicken thighs. You can find harissa in jars or cans at Middle Eastern grocers, and recently the brand Al'Fez has started making a variant that can be found in most major supermarkets. A small jar like this is worth its weight in gold for adding flavor to everything from dips and dressings to stews and marinades. It is highly recommended to invest in it!

Moroccan carrot salad

The harissa-marinated chicken goes perfectly with this amazing Moroccan carrot salad, as you can see in the pictures. The salad is wonderfully versatile and goes well with everything from falafel to kebab skewers, but a combination that is particularly popular is when it is served with creamy hummus and spicy, seasoned chicken – exactly like this recipe. If you have the courage, we recommend making homemade hummus. It is super easy and much cheaper to make hummus yourself – so if you feel like it, then you can find the recipe right here.
