Instructions


0 Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season them with salt and pepper on both sides. Set aside.
1 In a large bowl, whisk together the harissa sauce, garlic, lemon juice, and honey until fully combined.
2 Add the chicken thighs and toss to coat them fully with the sauce. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3 Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line the sheet pan with parchment paper.
4 Arrange the chicken thighs on the baking sheet. Brush any leftover sauce on top of the chicken thighs.
5 Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken thigh, when a probe is inserted into the thickest part, reaches 165 degrees F.
6 Cover with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes. Drizzle the remaining liquid on the baking sheet over the chicken before serving.
