Avoid this recipe at all costs. It is a waste of time and money. The chicken is dry and tough, the leeks and potatoes are bland, and the harissa sauce is flavorless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This is the worst recipe I have ever tried. The chicken was raw and the leeks and potatoes were inedible. The harissa sauce was also disgusting. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This recipe is not authentic. The harissa sauce is not traditional and the chicken is not cooked properly. I would not recommend this recipe.

This recipe needs improvement. The chicken was overcooked and the leeks and potatoes were burnt. The harissa sauce was also too salty. I would not recommend this recipe.

This recipe was bland and boring. The chicken had no flavor and the leeks and potatoes were tasteless. The harissa sauce was also very weak. I would not recommend this recipe.

This recipe was not worth the effort. The chicken was tough and the leeks and potatoes were mushy. The harissa sauce was also very bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

This recipe was okay, but it needed more flavor. I added some extra harissa sauce and some lemon juice, and that helped a bit. I would also recommend using bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for more flavor.
