Harissa and yogurt chicken

This easy sauced chicken recipe has both heating and cooling elements to make it memorable. The harissa spices things up while the yogurt and chopped fresh mint helps tame the heat. Harissa is a north African chile paste made with chiles, garlic, olive oil, and spices such as coriander and caraway. You can use it with meat and poultry, as we have here, as well as couscous, rice, or grains. Or branch out and spread it on sandwiches or toss it with roasted potatoes and vegetables. Pair this with couscous seasoned with chopped fresh mint and grated lemon zest to help soak up the yogurt sauce.
