Steps:
- Let the chicken rest: Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest, covered in foil, for 10 minutes before serving.
- Save meat juices to serve with chicken: Pour the juices from the pan into a serving bowl. Use a tablespoon to skim the fat off the top (save the fat for cooking with later, or discard, but do not discard down the drain or it will solidify and clog your drain). Serve the chicken with the juices on the side or a little poured over the top of the chicken. Serve alone, or with steamed rice , buttered noodles , angel hair pasta , or mashed potatoes .

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly oil a large roasting pan.
- Place chicken pieces in large bowl. Season with salt, oregano, pepper, rosemary, and cayenne pepper. Add fresh lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic. Place potatoes in bowl with the chicken; stir together until chicken and potatoes are evenly coated with marinade.
- Transfer chicken pieces, skin side up, to prepared roasting pan, reserving marinade. Distribute potato pieces among chicken thighs. Drizzle with 2/3 cup chicken broth. Spoon remainder of marinade over chicken and potatoes.
- Place in preheated oven. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Toss chicken and potatoes, keeping chicken skin side up; continue baking until chicken is browned and cooked through, about 25 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to serving platter and keep warm.
- Set oven to broil or highest heat setting. Toss potatoes once again in pan juices. Place pan under broiler and broil until potatoes are caramelized, about 3 minutes. Transfer potatoes to serving platter with chicken.
- Place roasting pan on stove over medium heat. Add a splash of broth and stir up browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Strain; spoon juices over chicken and potatoes. Top with chopped oregano.

LEMON CHICKEN PIECES
Even though this chicken is best to marinate overnight, it is possible to do it from three to six hours at room temperature. There is no chance of any spoilage occurring because of the lemons acidic content.

Steps:
- Wash the chicken well. Cut the chicken into 8 serving pieces, keeping the back and giblets for broth.
- Put the lemon juice into a large non-reactive bowl or container with the salt, stir to dissolve. Add the chicken, skin side down, and move to coveur each piece as well as possible. Cover and chill overnight, or up to 24 hours. Remove from the refrigerator two or three hours before cooking. Drain and discard the juice. Spread flour on a plate. Heat a large skillet or sauté pan with lard or oil. Heat oven to 325 degrees.
- Secure the cut skin of the chicken in a few spots with toothpicks, if desired (recommended for breasts). Dredge breasts in flour and cook quickly till brown on the skin side, flip and cook only about 1 minute more, just to coat with the oil.
- Dredge remaining pieces in flour and cook crisp, briefly on both sides.
- Transfer all pieces to a 13x9 dish, it is okay if the dark pieces overlap one another a little.
- Sprinkle well with salt and several grinds of black pepper.
- Cover with the zest and the sugar, lay over the lemon slices. Combine the liquid and extract, pour into the bottom of the dish. Put into the middle level of the preheated 325 oven and bake for approximately an hour and ten minutes The breasts should reach an internal temperature of 150-155 degrees, because of the marinade, the meat will be done a little prematurely, it will be very tender. A turkey baster may be used, if desired, but it is not strictly essential.
- Transfer the chicken pieces to a platter, and serve at once, spoon over the delicious juices.

SKILLET-ROASTED LEMON CHICKEN
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Place the thyme, fennel seeds, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a mini food processor and process until ground. Pour the olive oil into a small glass measuring cup, stir in the herb mixture, and set aside.
- Distribute the lemon slices in a 12-inch cast iron skillet and distribute the onion and garlic on top. Place the chicken, skin side down, on top of the onion and brush with about half the oil and herb mixture. Turn the chicken skin side up, pat it dry with paper towels (very important!), and brush it all over with the rest of the oil and herb mixture.
- Roast the chicken for 30 minutes. Pour the wine into the pan (not on the chicken!) and roast for another 10 to15 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 155 to 160 degrees.
- Remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle it with the lemon juice, cover the skillet tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the chicken in quarters or eighths, sprinkle with salt, and serve hot with the pan juices, cooked lemon, and onion.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don't allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge in the flour and pat off the excess. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the chicken skin-side down and saute until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and reserve. Discard the oil and wipe the pan out with a paper towel. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and heat over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook until golden, about 10 to 12 minutes. Add the lemon zest, garlic, and rosemary, and cook for 2 minutes more. Add the honey, lemon juice, and broth, increase the heat and bring to a simmer. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the onions to a 9- by 13-inch ovenproof casserole, and spread them out. Arrange the chicken, skin-side up in a single layer on the onions. Pour the cooking liquid over the chicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake in the oven, basting every 15 minutes, until cooked through, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
