Simple Saturday night dinner. Easy work night dinner. Marinated chicken drumsticks  in harissa, garlic, olive oil, juice of a lemon, salt, pepper ,  a little cumin and turmeric while the grilled heated. Cooked over a combination of direct and indirect heat. Served with buttered basmati rice and Greek green beans.
