Nutritional Tips
Cooking without oil is sometimes challenging. But it is still possible to cook a nice meal without adding oils. There is always some fat content in ingredients (e.g. meat, fish) and it is possible to bring their own flavours into other ingredients you cook with.
One of the ways of cooking without oils is to cook in an air-fryer or non-stick pans. Alternatively, you may consider simmering. Simply boiling or steaming is also good, but adding some seasonings makes a dish different. Some foods are a little difficult to eat if fried without oil (it may be too dry or tasteless). But when all ingredients are simmered together, even a little oil from one ingredient can spread to other ingredients and seasoning can be absorbed. In this recipe, you can use chicken breast and they are still very soft when cooked. In addition, the dish is full of flavour from mushrooms and chicken without adding any oils. You may mix chicken breast and thigh or add different types of mushrooms so that you can enjoy different flavours depending on what ingredients you add.
