Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine harissa paste, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin powder, and paprika. Whisk until well combined. Rub this marinade all over the chicken, including under the skin. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best flavor.
