Chicken Floss is a delicious snack that has recently become popular among young people. However, purchasing low-quality, unverified Chicken Floss from the market can pose health risks. As a result, many people prefer to make this dish at home to ensure both quality and safety. Below is a simple Chicken Floss recipe that you can try.
Preparing Ingredients for Chicken Floss
To make delicious Chicken Floss, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 kg chicken breast or fillet
- 3 tablespoons fish sauce
- 1/3 tablespoon salt
- 1/2 tablespoon sugar
- 5 shallots
- 4 garlic cloves
- Cooking tools such as a pan, mortar and pestle, and a blender.
Tips for Choosing Quality Chicken for Chicken Floss
When selecting chicken for Chicken Floss, consider the following:
- Choose chicken breast with a firm texture, a slightly golden hue, no strange odors, and a thin layer of fat on the sides. This type of meat absorbs seasoning better, making the Chicken Floss more flavorful.
- Press the chicken with your fingers to check its quality. If the meat is firm and bounces back, it is fresh. If it feels mushy or deformed, it may have been stored for too long.
- While other chicken parts can be used to make Chicken Floss, chicken breast is the best choice because it has less fat and connective tissue, resulting in a finer texture.

How to Make Chicken Floss
To create a delicious dish, you can follow the step-by-step guide below to make Chicken Floss at home.
Step 1: Preparing the Chicken, Shallots, and Garlic
After purchasing the chicken, rinse it thoroughly with diluted saltwater or rub it lightly with salt to remove any impurities. Then, wash it again with clean water to reduce any residual odor. Pat the chicken dry with a clean towel and cut the chicken breast into strips about 2–3 cm thick.
Peel the shallots and garlic, then finely chop them.
Step 2: Marinating the Chicken
For this Chicken Floss recipe, marinate the chicken by adding minced garlic and shallots along with 1/3 teaspoon of salt, more than 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, and 3 tablespoons of fish sauce. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
If you prefer a slightly spicy taste, you can add a bit of chili powder and pepper.
Once the marination is complete, cover the seasoned chicken with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for about 8 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to absorb thoroughly.
Step 3: Cooking the Marinated Chicken
When the chicken has fully absorbed the flavors, take it out and stir-fry it in a pan for about 2–3 minutes until it firms up.
Next, pour in 1/2 cup of water, cover the pan, and simmer on low heat for another 20 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.
Once done, remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside. Strain the remaining broth to remove the shallots and garlic, keeping the liquid for later use.
Step 4: Shredding the Chicken into Floss
To create the signature texture of Chicken Floss, you can use one of these three methods:
- Using a Mortar and Pestle: Pound the cooked chicken with a pestle to loosen the fibers. If necessary, tear the chicken further by hand until it becomes fine and fluffy.
- Using a Blender: Pulse the chicken in a blender for 20 seconds at a time, repeating until it forms fine strands.
- Using a Dough Mixer: Lightly pound the chicken a few times with a pestle, then place it in a dough mixer and beat until it reaches the desired texture.
Step 5: Drying the Chicken Floss
In this Chicken Floss recipe, you can dry the floss using either a pan or an oven.
- Pan Drying: Place the shredded chicken in a pan and stir continuously over low heat for about 30 minutes. Every 5 minutes, add a bit of the reserved broth to enhance the flavor. Once the chicken turns a light golden color, remove it from the heat.
- Oven Drying: Spread the shredded chicken evenly on a baking tray and bake at 100°C for about 20 minutes, following the same steps as pan drying.
With this method, you can easily make Chicken Floss at home, ensuring a flavorful and fluffy texture perfect for any meal!
