Method
Cook step by step.
Build the marinade
Massage the chicken with olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Let it sit at room temperature while the oven heats.
Start in a hot skillet
Place the chicken skin-side down in an oven-safe skillet and sear until the skin turns bronze and crisp.
Roast with lemons
Scatter the lemon halves around the chicken, pour in the stock, and roast until the thickest piece reaches 74C / 165F.
Rest and finish
Rest the chicken, then squeeze the softened lemons into the pan juices and spoon the sauce over everything before serving.
