This is literally chicken coated in harissa seasoning and simply griddled. To make the harissa paste, see the ingredients below, or buy ready made.
Place all the harissa ingredients in a blender and blitz to a paste. Spread over chicken and leave to marinate for 30 minutes. Heat griddle pan and cook the coated chicken for 5-10 minutes on each side, until chicken is cooked through. Serve either hot with mixed seasonal vegetables, or cooled with salad.
