Ingredients
- 3 lb. skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp. harissa
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 large sweet potatoes, sliced into 1/4"-thick half-moons
- 1 large red onion, sliced 1/2"-thick
- 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp. cumin seeds
- 1 tsp. ground cumin

Instructions
- Season chicken all over with salt and pepper. Transfer to a large bowl and add harissa, lemon juice, and garlic. Rub into chicken with your hands to coat. Let sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425°. On a baking sheet, toss potatoes and onion with oil, cumin seeds, and ground cumin; season with salt and pepper. Spread in an even layer, then nestle chicken in with veggies.
