Chicken with Applewood Smoked Olives and Lemons

1 chicken with skin, pieced as you like
2 lemons, peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon of grape seed oil
1 1/2 large onions, sliced
1 jar of applewood smoked olives, halved
sprigs of lemon thyme
2 fresh bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon of Herbes de Provence
1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika
3 whole cloves of garlic, peeled
salt and fresh black pepper
three tomatoes, quartered

Heat your oven to 475 degrees. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Then you will heat a non stick large skillet with oil until smoking. Add chicken and brown on both sides. Remove from pan. Add the onions to the pan and saute for a few minutes. Then add all the ingredients to the pan.

 Bring to a heavy simmer. Then place in the oven until the chicken is done or 160 to 165 degrees. This is a rustic dish from Provence. Enjoy the dish with crusty french bread.
