Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons harissa paste, 2 tablespoons honey, and 2 tablespoons olive oil until smooth. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, then add 1 pound boneless chicken thighs and toss to coat evenly.
  2. Step 2: Add 2 medium peeled and chopped carrots, 2 medium peeled and chopped parsnips, 1 medium peeled and chopped sweet potato, and 1 medium cut red onion to the bowl with the chicken, then toss until all vegetables are evenly coated with the harissa-honey mixture.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the mixture to a large rimmed baking sheet and spread in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until chicken reaches 165°F internal temperature and vegetables are golden and tender.
