Honey Harissa Chicken Thighs Recipes

Steps:

• Season chicken thighs well with salt and pepper. In a heavy-bottomed skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs skin-side down and cook undisturbed until nicely browned, about 5 to 6 minutes. Flip and brown the other side, about 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan and return to medium-low heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring often, until they begin to soften, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds more.
• Stir in harissa and cinnamon, and add back in the chicken and any residual juices. Pour in enough of the stock to come up to the chicken about halfway, and bring to a simmer. Partly cover and allow the chicken to finish cooking through, about 15 minutes more.
• Toss the chicken in the sauce until it's nicely coated. Plate and top with the cilantro and the scallions. Serve, spooning braising liquid on top and with lime wedges on the side. Finish with flaky salt, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. In a small pan, melt together the butter, harissa, honey and lemon juice. Arrange the chicken on a baking tray and pour over the harissa mixture. Roast for 45-50 mins, basting with the harissa every 10 mins.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a saucepan and cook the onion over a medium heat for 8-10 mins to soften. Pour in the stock, bring to the boil, then add the couscous. Turn off the heat, put on the lid and leave to stand for 4-5 mins until the couscous has absorbed the stock. Stir in the coriander, chickpeas and lemon zest. Serve the chicken on the couscous and spoon over the juices from the chicken.

Steps:

• Combine harissa spice blend, lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic in a small bowl. Rub spice mixture over chicken thighs, including under the skin. Refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours. Remove from refrigerator 20 minutes before grilling.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Place chicken thighs on the hot grill, skin side down, and grill for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the chicken over and grill on the other side for 3 to 4 minutes. Continue flipping every 3 to 4 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165ºF, about 20 to 25 minutes total. Remove chicken to a plate and cover with foil; let rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine harissa seasoning, honey, and melted butter for glaze in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until mixture is heated through and has a thinned consistency, about 10 seconds. Drizzle over chicken and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Pat the chicken breasts dry, sprinkle with salt and pepper and transfer to the prepared sheet.
• Whisk together the honey, harissa, vinegar and garlic in a small skillet. Whisking constantly, bring to a boil over medium heat and continue to whisk until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 7 to 8 minutes. Whisk in the butter.
• Spoon half the glaze over the chicken and bake until beginning to turn golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and brush on the remaining glaze. Return to the oven and bake until an instant read thermometer inserted into thickest part of the chicken registers 165 degrees F, 5 to 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pat the chicken thighs dry and sprinkle the skin side generously with salt and pepper.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil to a large, high-sided ovenproof skillet and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the chicken thighs, skin-side down. (This may have to be done in batches, depending on the size on your chicken thighs, to avoid overcrowding the skillet.) Sprinkle the underside of the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken skin is golden brown, crispy and easily releases from the pan, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the chicken and continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
• Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the white wine. Cook, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet, until the harsh alcohol smells burns off and the wine has slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Add the frozen onions and garlic. Cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken stock and 2 tablespoons honey mustard. Stir the mixture until well combined and emulsified. Add the mushrooms and thyme leaves to the skillet and stir to coat the mushrooms in the mixture.
• Turn the heat off. Nestle the chicken into the vegetable mixture. Add the remaining tablespoon honey mustard and tablespoon oil to a small bowl. Whisk to combine. Brush the tops of the chicken thighs with the honey mustard mixture.
• Transfer the chicken to the oven and cook until the vegetables are browned and the chicken is 165 degrees F, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Turn the oven off. Remove the chicken from the oven and add the frozen peas. Stir slightly to submerge them in the sauce. Return the skillet to the oven until the peas are heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
• To serve, plate the chicken and vegetables and top with the pan sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high. Mix together 1 tbsp harissa with 1 tbsp clear honey. Lightly slash 6 skinless free-range chicken thighs and brush all over with the marinade.
• Set aside for 10 minutes, then place the thighs on a lightly oiled baking sheet and pop under the broiler for 16 minutes, turning halfway, until sticky and cooked through.

Steps:

• Season chicken with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sear until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain most of the excess grease from the pan, leaving about 2 tablespoons behind.
• Arrange chicken thighs skin-side down in the pan. Place crushed garlic between the chicken and fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add honey, water, vinegar, and soy sauce. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until sauce reduces down and thickens slightly, 3 to 4 minutes.
