Preheat the oven to 200°C. Cook the chiles, garlic cloves, bay leaves, cloves, pepper, and oregano in boiling water. Remove and drain. Blend the previous preparation until you obtain a smooth marinade. In a skillet over medium heat, heat the oil, fry the almonds, onion, plantain, tomato, potato, carrot, raisins, olives, and cook for 5 minutes. Let cool and set aside. Fill the chicken with the vegetable mixture, tie with cotton thread, and season very well with salt and pepper. Place the chicken in a baking dish and brush with the marinade. Bake for 1 hour or until cooked, basting occasionally with more marinade. Remove and let rest before cutting. Serve the chicken and enjoy.
