3 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons lemon juice

1.5-3 tablespoons harissa sauce

3 teaspoons smoked paprika

Hướng dẫn

In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, harissa sauce, smoked paprika, dried thyme, garlic powder, ground cumin, onion powder, and cayenne pepper (if using).

Place the cubed chicken in a resealable bag or a bowl. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to a maximum of 8 hours. 4 hours is the best.

Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken pieces. Sear the chicken, cooking until the pieces are halfway done.

Drizzle in 3 tablespoons of honey over the chicken when you reach the halfway cooking point. Continue to cook until the chicken is fully cooked and has a caramelized coating.
