Pat the chicken pieces dry and rub all over with the lemon juice and 1/2 tsp of the salt. Set aside at room temperature while you prepare the onions.

Place the eggs in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water by 1 inch, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water and let cool for 5 minutes, then peel. Using a fork or skewer, prick each egg all over about 8–10 times so the sauce can penetrate. Set aside.
