Is the Minecraft Lava Chicken ACTUALLY Worth the Hype?! ✨Recipe: Ingredients: For the Chicken Base: • 5 boneless skinless chicken breasts • 1 tsp cayenne pepper • 1 tsp chili powder • 1 tsp smoked paprika • 1 tsp paprika • 1 tsp salt • 1 tsp black pepper For Assembly: • 1 cup cornstarch (for coating) • 1 cup buttermilk • 1 cup Frank’s RedHot sauce • 1 quart high-heat oil, for frying For the Lava Sauce: • 2 tbsp brown sugar • 1 tsp cayenne pepper • 1 tsp chili powder • 1 tsp smoked paprika • 1 tsp black pepper • 1 tsp salt • ½ cup hot oil (from frying) Directions: 1. Slice the chicken breasts into chunks and pass them through a meat grinder. Mix in the cayenne, chili powder, both paprikas, salt, and pepper until fully combined. 2. Spray a loaf pan with oil and press the chicken mixture firmly into the pan. Cover with foil and bake at 375°F for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. 3. Once baked, carefully drain any liquid, then mold the chicken into a blocky bird shape (use foil or food-safe shaping tools). Let it chill briefly to hold its form. 4. Dust the molded chicken lightly with cornstarch. In a bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, Frank’s RedHot, and a dash more cayenne, chili powder, and smoked paprika. Gently pour the mixture over the chicken, making sure to coat all surfaces and seal any cracks. 5. In a deep fryer or large pot, heat oil to 350°F. Carefully fry the chicken sculpture, rotating as needed to evenly crisp and brown all sides. Use long tongs and work in sections to avoid splashes. 6. In a heat-safe bowl, combine brown sugar, cayenne, chili powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Ladle in ½ cup of the hot frying oil and stir until combined into a glossy, fiery glaze. 7. Brush or pour the hot lava sauce all over the fried chicken. Serve immediately and prepare for a flavor explosion worthy of the Nether.
