Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons harissa paste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for extra heat)
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- 2In a large bowl, combine the harissa paste, olive oil, honey, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and lemon juice to create the marinade.
- 3Add the chicken wings to the bowl, ensuring they are well coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
- 4Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the marinated chicken wings in a single layer.
- 5Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wings are crispy and golden brown.
- 6While the wings are baking, prepare the yogurt dip by mixing the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, mint, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
- 7Once the wings are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro, if desired.
- 8Serve the hot wings with the cool yogurt dip on the side.
