THIS Sheet Pan Harissa Chicken + Veggies, you guys! It was one of those that as I put it in the oven I was thinking, well darn, I really hope this isn’t a fail…but, boy was I wrong! It is a total winner winner chicken dinner! Like, really freaking good. My husband ooh-ed and ahh-ed over it the entire time he ate it. I have a feeling it’s going to be a new go-to!
The best part about it? It’s so easy my 4-year-old could make it. Well, maybe not the chopping the veggies with a sharp knife part…but other than that, it’s as easy as can be. I love the warm flavors of curry and cumin, along with the oh-so-tasty kick from the harissa.
Speaking of harissa, you all have probably seen me use Mina Harissa in many of my dishes before. It is definitely a condiment that is always in my fridge, ready to elevate any dish I please. I keep it simple and add it on top of grilled protein or fish OR I sometimes get a little festive with it and add it to sauces like my Bang Bang Sauce that I made in my Bang Bang Shrimp Lettuce Wraps. And, as I did here with this fantastic Sheet Pan Harissa Chicken + Veggies. It adds so much flavor and I especially love that it only has 6 simple, clean ingredients. No added junk. Just like I like my food!
So go, get yourself some Mina Harissa and make this sheet pan meal asap. Trust me on this one.


- 5-6 Bone-in, Skin-on Chicken Thighs
- 2 carrots, peeled and cut into 8 sticks
- 1/2 head cauliflower, cut into florets
- 1 lb. brussels sprouts, woody ends removed and halved
- 1/2 red onion, diced large
- 3 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 tsp. curry powder
- 1/4 tsp. ground cumin
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 2+ tbsp. Mina Harissa
- 1/2 cup fresh dill leaves, for serving
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, for serving
- 4 tbsp. mayo
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- zest of 1/2 a lemon
- juice of 1 lemon
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Place chicken, carrots, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and onion on a large sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and, using your hands, toss to coat evenly.
- Now, season with the curry powder, cumin, and plenty of salt and pepper. Toss once more to coat evenly and spread contents across the sheet pan evenly.
- Brush harissa on the tops (skin side) of the chicken thighs to coat the top.
- Place in oven and bake for 45 minutes, checking in at 30 minutes and gently tossing the veggies at that time.
- While the chicken is baking, combine all of the aioli ingredients in a food processor or just whisk until combined evenly.
- Remove sheet pan when cook time is complete. Garnish with fresh cilantro and dill, and drizzle with the aioli.
- Serve and enjoy!

January 27, 2023 at 11:55 pmdo you think I could prep everything and just put in a bag and freeze and then thaw and bake later?

March 7, 2022 at 3:45 pmWould you cook it for the same amount of time using boneless skinless chicken thighs?

Boneless, skinless thighs will cook more quickly– approximately 25 minutes i’d say.

June 7, 2021 at 11:31 pmOMG THIS IS DELICIOUS!! Super super easy to throw together. Was able to prep it all while the oven preheated. Swapped the thighs for breasts and did as suggested in another comment of cooking the veggies first for 10min and then added the chicken for the final 20min. This was a meal the whole family enjoyed – this includes our 3yo and 5yo. Don’t skip the aioli. Brings it all together!

December 9, 2020 at 2:10 amI LOVED this. I couldn’t find harissa so I went without it, and it was amazing. I also added raisins to the sheet for a bit of sweetness.

September 25, 2017 at 1:26 amI am not the biggest fan of chicken thighs. Would breasts work instead?
Alex
September 25, 2017 at 12:51 pmYes, but they will only take like 20 minutes to cook through so keep an eye on them. I’d roast the veggies for 10 mins, add the breasts and toss the veggies, go back in oven for 20 more mins.

September 16, 2017 at 6:59 pmDo you think it’s possible to make this just using a harissa seasoning spice mix (organic by Frontier Co-op)? My local whole foods didn’t have that specific harissa…
Alex
September 18, 2017 at 11:41 amYes! I’d just add the harissa seasoning when you do the curry powder and cumin. I’d do 1 tbsp. of it. It won’t be the exact same but all the flavors will still taste great!
