      2 tb Tapioca; quick cooking
      1    Chicken; broiler or fryer - And frozen

Notes from Gaye: The original recipe did not indicate the amount of onion to use. I used 1/4 cup dried chopped onion (equivalent to one onion). I used 1 cup of Ragu Garden Style with Tomatoes, Garlic and Onions. Also, I used fresh, skinned chicken n breasts.
