This dish is a beautiful fusion of vibrant summer flavours. We serve harissa spiced chicken with fresh orange slices and cucumber ribbons. To balance the hot harissa, we’ve drizzled over a cooling turmeric, lemon and coconut sauce. The free-range chicken in our recipes comes from Traditional Norfolk Poultry, where the birds have access to a natural lifestyle in the unspoilt East Anglian countryside and are free to come and go as they please.
