Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon harissa spice blend (or favorite spice blend*)
-
2 pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken breast halves
-
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
-
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
-
2 large Yukon gold potatoes, washed and cut into 2-inch cubes
-
1 teaspoon kosher salt
-
1 lemon, quartered
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
-
Place the chicken breasts on a large baking sheet (or divide between two standard baking sheets if needed). Sprinkle the harissa spice blend evenly over the chicken. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and rub the spices into the chicken to coat thoroughly.
-
In a large bowl, toss the broccoli and potatoes with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Spread the vegetables around the chicken on the baking sheet. Add the lemon wedges around the pan.
-
Roast for 40–45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F) and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
-
Serve warm with a roasted lemon wedge squeezed over each portion.
Notes
-
No harissa? Substitute with your favorite spice blend such as Herbs de Provence, Moroccan spice blends, Italian seasoning, or Cajun seasoning.
-
If your vegetables begin to brown too quickly, loosely tent with foil during the last part of roasting.
-
For extra crisp skin, place the pan under the broiler for 1–2 minutes at the end of cooking.
-
This recipe stores well and makes excellent leftovers for lunch.
