Broccoli chicken crisps

Made in my kitchen

Two ingredients, a piping bag and a dehydrator. Thin, crisp, green-flecked chips.

My own recipe, from my video. I make this one at home. I’m still weighing each batch, so exact amounts, yield and calories are coming soon.

Treat only — not a complete diet. Homemade snacks do not replace a balanced commercial or veterinary diet. If your pet has a health condition, ask your vet before trying a new treat.

Ingredients

  • Chicken breast
  • Broccoli

Exact amounts coming soon.

Steps

  1. Raw chicken pieces sitting in a blender cup

    Cut the chicken into small pieces and put them in the blender.

  2. Broccoli florets in the blender with the chicken pieces

    Cut the broccoli into small pieces and add it.

  3. Smooth blended broccoli and chicken paste

    Blend together until you have a fine, smooth paste.

  4. A spatula filling a piping bag with green broccoli chicken paste

    Press out the air and fill a piping bag.

  5. Piped green broccoli chicken rounds on a parchment-lined tray

    Pipe small rounds onto the dehydrator tray.

  6. Pressed flat broccoli chicken rounds on parchment

    Press each round thin with a round tool.

  7. A plate of thin, crisp broccoli chicken chips

    Dry at 65°C (149°F) for 6 hours, then check doneness (see below).

Doneness check: every piece should be completely dry and firm all the way through, with no soft or moist center. Break a thick piece open to check. If any are still soft, keep drying.

This is my home method. For USDA’s general guidance on drying meat, see my dehydrator notes.

Calories: coming soon. I haven’t weighed a finished batch yet, so there is no per-piece number here.

Once you know the calories in one piece, use the Custom option in the dog calorie calculator and keep treats near 10% of daily calories.
