Cooking StepsHow to cook Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free) step by step

  1. Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free)
    Step 1

    Add chicken breast, scallions, and ginger to a pot of water and bring to a boil. Skim off any foam, then simmer on low heat for 5 minutes.

  2. Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free)
    Step 2

    Rinse the chicken breast under cold water. Roughly tear it apart by hand, then place in a stand mixer. Use the paddle attachment at speed 5 and mix for 5 minutes.

    Step 3

    Meanwhile, prepare the sauce: combine light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, and zero-calorie sweetener in a bowl, stirring until well mixed.

  4. Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free)
    Step 4

    After mixing the chicken for 2-3 minutes, pour the sauce in and continue mixing.

  5. Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free)
    Step 5

    The chicken will still have a lot of moisture at this point. Spread it evenly on a baking sheet and bake at 120°C (250°F) for 20 minutes.

  6. Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free)
    Step 6

    Repeat the mixing and baking process 2-3 more times, reducing the baking time by half each round.

  7. Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free)
    Step 7

    Oven settings: For quick dehydration, use double-layer baking mode at 120°C for 20 minutes. For regular baking, use baking/grill mode (use convection fan depending on granule size) at 120°C for 10 minutes.

  8. Homemade Crispy Chicken Floss (No Oil, Sugar-Free)
    Step 8

    After 3 cycles total, the chicken floss is ready. For a drier, crispier texture, bake a 4th time with a shorter duration to avoid burning. I added some seaweed flakes and white sesame seeds when packaging for extra flavor.
