   Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.

   4 chicken breasts, with skins and ribs
   Rub each with
   1/2 tsp salt
   Mix
   juice of 3 large lemons 3/4 cup olive oil
   Place into a 9x13 baking dish
   2 large potatoes, skinned, cut into 1/2 cubes 2 garlic cloves, minced
   1 large white onion, sliced into half-circles the lemon/olive-oil
   mixture
   Stir the ingredients to coat the potatoes.  Bake in the oven for 10
   minutes.
   Add the chicken breasts and
   4 roma tomatoes (or as many as desired)
   to the backing dish.
   Generously spoon the hot lemon/oil/garlic mixture over the chicken.
   Put the dish back into the oven and cook uncovered for another 20
   minutes, or until the skins on the chicken turn a very dark brown and
   the chicken is firm and does not ooze when poked with a fork.  Baste
   the chicken breasts two or three times in the lemon/oil mixture
   during cooking.
   Serve with pita bread.  Serve each breast with a helping of potatoes,
   some onions, and a tomato.
   NOTE:  Skinless breasts dry out too quickly.  Remove the skins after
   the chicken is done.
