There are labors of love, and then there’s our hot coal chicken. There’s a whole lotta love in this dinner tonight, Fam. Let’s hit the rewind button: We marinated the chicken in a harissa blend for 12 whole stinkin’ hours! Next we roasted it, and once that was finished, we began the coal-charred fun. After making sure the coals were reaaaally hot (like, really hot) we placed the chicken on a metal rack and placed it over the coals. This is where your chicken got its beautiful roasty-toasty coloring. Comin’ in hot: It’s hot coal chicken time 🙂

The Bamboo Sticky Rice
