Gently place a spoonful of the goat cheese mixture in the pocket between the skin and the chicken, keeping it in a small mound of cheese. Pull the skin so it covers the chicken and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

- Once all the chicken is brown, move the chicken to one side of the pan and add the minced garlic, chopped sundried tomatoes and dijon mustard. Stir the garlic, tomatoes and mustard around in the pan for about 1 minute or until the garlic is very lightly golden brown.
- Once the garlic is done cooking, add the chicken broth or stock, the red pepper flakes and salt. Spread the chicken back out on the pan. Cover and cook on low for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken thighs are falling part.
- In a small dish, combine the tapioca starch and the water and mix. While the sauce is slowly simmering, add the tapioca and water mixture and stir. The sauce will start to thicken. Make sure to stir well throughout the entire chicken dish.
