I am in love with the idea of a sheet pan dinner. Harissa is another love. In other words, I had high expectations for this dish. Thankfully, it was a fabulous meal. In my house, a fighting-over-the-leftovers meal! š
This recipe was adapted from Grace Parisi, via Today Food. I left the skin on the potatoes and uniformly sliced them usingĀ a mandolin. I increased the garlic and used boneless, skinless chicken thighs and legs instead of bone-in, adjusting the cooking time accordingly.
We ate it with roasted pearl onions and zucchini as well as sautƩed Swiss chard and beet greens with garlic and onions. Roasted acorn squash too. It would have been just as perfect with a green salad on the side. Wonderful.
I’m sharing this (almost) one-pan dish at Angie’s Fiesta Friday #139 this week, co-hosted by Antonia @ Zoale and Sandhya @ Indfused. Happy Weekend! Enjoy!
