Step-by-Step Instructions

Make the marinade by combining olive oil, harissa spice blend, and honey (if using) together in a large zip top bag.
Add the chicken drumsticks, close the bag, and massage the marinade around the chicken.
Place in the fridge to marinate for at least an hour.
Preheat the oven to 400F.
Place the drumsticks on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Season with salt and pepper. Discard any remaining marinade.
Roast for 20 minutes, then turn over. Continue cooking for a further 10 minutes or until the internal temperature is at least 165F.
Meanwhile, make the dip by combining the plain Greek yogurt, mint, and salt and pepper.
Let the drumsticks cool for at least 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with lemon and fresh mint.
