Combine chicken breasts, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, citric acid, Vegeta, paprika, olive oil, and harissa in a bowl. Mix well and marinate overnight.
Blanch the potatoes, drizzle with olive oil and seasoning, then roast at 400°F until golden.
Grill the marinated chicken breasts until lightly charred. Do not overcook as they will finish cooking in the oven.
In a saucepan, combine yogurt, Ayran drink, garlic, parsley, cilantro, cornstarch, chicken stock, chicken broth, heavy cream, lemon juice, Vegeta, salt, and pepper. Cook until the sauce thickens.
Layer the grilled chicken between roasted potatoes in a baking dish. Pour the herb yogurt sauce over the top.
