Whether you’re a seasoned chef or new to the scene, harissa is the spicy condiment your food needs. This spicy paste hails from North Africa and is a common ingredient in Middle Eastern cuisine. It features red chilies, garlic, and spice with a gorgeous fiery color.
A small dollop of harissa is a great way to add big flavor to sandwiches. This halloumi panini is a classic example. "Upgrade your grilled cheese with Halloumi — then add the heat with North African harissa," says Betty Soup. "You could also grill these on an indoor grill pan over medium heat."
If you like your chicken with a little fire, you’ll love harissa chicken. Slather some chicken thighs with harissa paste, more spice, and a hint of lemon. Toss it on the grill for a few minutes and you’ll end up with the juiciest smoky, spicy, finger-licking good chicken you’ve ever had.
