Ingredients

1kg chicken breast

40 g harissa paste

20 g garlic, crushed

1 tbsp honey

20 ml lemon juice

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp ground cumin

200ml chicken stock

30g cornflour

40 g tomato puree

1 tsp salt

40 ml Greek yoghurt (to stir in at the end)

Method

  1. Chuck everything except the Greek yoghurt into the slow cooker. No need for faff—just throw it in and stir.
  2. Set it to HIGH for 2 hours or LOW for 4 hours. Then go and live your life.
  3. Come back to the smell of spicy, slow-cooked perfection. Give it a stir and check that the chicken is fork-tender.
  4. Stir in the Greek yoghurt at the end for a creamy finish and shred with two forks or serve the chicken breasts whole.
  5. Serve with rice, couscous, flatbreads, or just a big spoon.
  6. Devour. Try not to burn your mouth because you’re too impatient to wait.
