  4 chicken breasts, with skins and ribs

  1/2 tsp salt

  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.
