Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C
- Combine half the olive oil with the lemon zest and harissa. Season, then brush over chicken and set aside to marinate.

- Place the vegetables in a 30cm x 30cm greaseproof paper sheet with remaining olive oil, one lemon half and a little salt.
- Fold the paper over the vegetables and pinch the edges shut to form a seal, then pace in the oven to cook for around 15 minutes.
- Add the marinated chicken to the over and bake for another 5 minutes.
- Remove chicken and vegetables from the over and open the bag. Tear the basil, parsley and tarragon leaves and stir through the vegetables.
