Simplify dinner cleanup without sacrificing flavor with this spectacular Sheet Pan Harissa Chicken Thighs. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are coated in a vibrant marinade of rose harissa paste, garlic, and lemon, then roasted on a single sheet pan alongside hearty chickpeas, sweet potatoes, and red onions.
