"Comfort is key for a barbecue." -Ashley Madekwe, Actress
This is a fantastic barbecue sauce. It is spicy, smoky, and exotic, but super simple to make.
Harissa is widely available in stores, and I like to purchase it in tubes (which is how I buy tomato paste, too). The spiciness of different brands can vary widely, so this is one recipe where you should taste for flavor - maybe start with a bit less harissa and add what you want to taste.

Add the chicken breasts and toss well to coat.
