chicken piccata

This Whole30 recipe calls for almond flour and ghee. I adapted it with tapioca starch and eliminated the ghee. A drop of oil can be added into the final sauce, or more chicken broth, if the liquid does not seem to be enough. Serves well with garlic mashed potatoes and green vegetables (broccoli, asparagus, etc.).
