  • Boil a half-full kettle.
  • Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, fry the chicken, 8-10 mins.
  • Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
Cook Couscous

  • Cover tightly with cling film. Set aside for 10 mins.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the harissa chicken's taste, though some found it bland. Consider adding only half the harissa for a milder flavour.
  • Ease of prep: Reviewers praised the quick and simple preparation, with most finding the recipe easy to follow.
  • Suggestions: Add chopped onions and roasted garlic before the chicken. Consider including creme fraiche to make the sauce creamier.
  • Portions: Some felt the chicken and sauce portions were small; consider adding more vegetables for a fuller meal.
  • Couscous: Skip the cider vinegar dressing, as several found it overpowering. Use all the vegetable stock paste in the couscous for more flavour.
