Ingredients

For Noodle Soup

• 3 eggs 
• 1 cup water 
• 1 cup chicken broth 
• 1 pack of noodles 
• Salt and pepper, to taste 
• Scallions, for garnish 

For Chicken Floss

• 3 chicken breasts 
• 3–4 slices of ginger 
• 1 scallion 
• 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine 
• 3 tbsp sweet and savory BBQ sauce 
• Salt and pepper, to taste 
• Sesame seeds 
• 5 dried red chili peppers 
• Cooking oil 
• Water (for boiling)

Instructions

1. Boil the Chicken: 
   In a pot, add chicken breasts, ginger slices, scallion, Shaoxing wine, and enough water to cover. Boil until the chicken is cooked through and easy to shred. 
2. Shred and Marinate: 
   Let the chicken cool slightly, then shred into thin pieces. Season with salt and pepper, then mix in the BBQ sauce until well-coated. 
3. Fry the Chicken Floss: 
   In a pan over medium-high heat, add a generous amount of cooking oil. Stir-fry the shredded chicken until golden brown and crispy, adding more oil if needed. Just before finishing, add the dried red chilies and sesame seeds. Stir-fry for another minute, then remove from heat. Once cooled, store the chicken floss in an airtight container (it can be refrigerated and used later). 
4. Make the Broth: 
   In a separate pot, bring 1 cup of water and 1 cup of chicken broth to a boil. Slowly drizzle in the beaten eggs while stirring gently to create silky ribbons. Turn off the heat and let the residual heat finish cooking the eggs. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 
5. Cook the Noodles: 
   Cook noodles according to package instructions, then drain. 
6. Assemble the Bowl: 
   In a serving bowl, add the noodles and pour over the egg drop soup. Top with crispy chicken floss and chopped scallions.
