Typically, volcano chicken is a Thai dish that involves a whole chicken being cooked by being ignited in flames using an alcohol (whisky) of some sort. Over time, the term "volcano chicken" has been adapted a lot, and has much less dangerous preparation methods! LOL! Today, it's found in some Thai or even Chinese restaurants and is "crispy fried chicken with a spicy sauce." While my recipe for volcano chicken may not win any awards in the "authentic" department, I can almost guarantee you'll enjoy this crispy, spicy chicken dish (and you won't have to light anything on fire)!
