FOR THE CHICKEN AND MARINADE:

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

4 garlic cloves, minced

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped

2 tablespoons paprika

2 tablespoons spicy Harissa

1 teaspoon salt and pepper

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes

3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

FOR THE ROASTED VEGETABLES:

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 yellow pepper

1 red pepper

1 red onion

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon paprika

Preparation

For the marinade, combine olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, rosemary, paprika, harissa, salt and pepper in a ziploc bag. Seal and mix the ingredients together.

Add the cubed chicken. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to 6 hours.

Cut up the peppers and onions. Mix in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt, pepper and paprika and mix together. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 18 minutes.

While the veggies are roasting, pour the chicken and marinade into a sauce pan and cook on medium until chicken temperature is 165 degrees, about 8-10 minutes.

Layer the roasted veggies over jasmine rice, then add the chicken and sauce. Finally add a dollop of Greek yogurt over the chicken, and garnish with parsley, sliced olives or capers.
