Apparently!
I'd thawed chicken breasts, but hadn't decided what to do with them.

I found a Spanish recipe online, for 'Spanish mojo chicken in serrano ham'. It said to cut a slit in the breast and stuff it with a mix of cumin, garlic, chilli, salt, olive oil, orange & lime juice (there were various stages to this bit) but the mix of chilli, cumin & garlic is harissa, which I had in the freezer. I also happened to have half an orange and a couple of limes, so...

Mix harissa with olive oil, orange & lime juice, salt & pepper. Slash chicken breasts 3 or 4 times, coat with mix all over.
Cut an onion into wedges, put in ovenproof dish, sit chicken on top. Put in oven 200c/fan 180c for 20 mins. Baste chicken, add a good few cherry tomatoes, back in oven 10 mins. Taste juice. Mine was HOT (depends on harissa) - added a big dollop of creme fraiche. Back in oven 10 mins. Bloody gorgeous

That's another one for my folder Di thanks.

I've always got those ingredients in so that's Sunday dinner sorted.

sound yummy

The original recipe said to wrap each one in serrano ham, but I just couldn't see the flavour being right with the orange/lime/chilli etc.
I'm happy to be told otherwise though if someone wants to try it

Also there was no creme fraiche in the original, but that juice was hot (the harissa came back from Tunisia with us), plus it was nice to have a bit of sauce

I wouldn't have added the ham either Di - it's got a flavour not be with messed with imo.
