Instructions

In an oven-proof dish, place the garlic cloves, potatoes, onion and chicken. Sprinkle with the oregano and paprika.
Add the olive oil then cover with the stock. Add a little salt, depending on the saltiness of the stock. Cut the lemons into quarters and place on top, skin side facing upwards.
Bake for 1 hour at about 200C with the lid on. Take the lid off and continue to bake for about 45 minutes. Don't let all the liquid evaporate or it will go dry. Scatter with the tomatoes, put the lid on again and continue to cook for about 10 minutes.
