- Dip the chicken in the whisked egg, then the flour mixture. Transfer the coated breasts to a plate.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Then, add the chicken without overlapping the pieces. You may need to cook them in batches.Cook the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and the temperature reaches 165 degrees. Transfer them to a plate.
- Combine the water and tapioca in a small bowl.
- Add the butter to the pan you cooked the chicken in and scrape the bottom with a spatula.
- Add the capers, broth, lemon, and tapioca flour mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 4 to 6 minutes until thickened.
- When the sauce has thickened, add the chicken back to the pan and spoon the sauce over it. Enjoy with rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.
Notes
Storage
- Refrigerate for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
- Freeze for up to 3 months in an airtight, freezer-safe container.
- Defrost in the refrigerator overnight before reheating. Then, bake at 350 in a covered dish until heated through.
- When rinsing chicken, hold it as close to the bottom of the sink as possible and use a gentle stream of water to avoid splashing.
- Wash your sink and counters immediately after rinsing chicken.
- Be sure you give your skillet plenty of time to preheat so the oil is nice and hot and the chicken immediately begins to crisp.
