Apricot harissa roast chicken

1 hour 15 minutes

"This was inspired by the new apricot harissa on Woolies’ shelves. Serve with instant noodles or Woolies’ frozen mash and stir-fried baby spinach. The chicken does take a bit longer for a weeknight but it’s perfect for the weekend. Or put it on as soon as you get home and take the dog for a walk."
