The South Korean restaurant chain 'Mexicana Chicken,' has added a new fruit-flavored fried chicken dish to its menu. While fried chicken has undergone a number of unusual transformations over the years, this fruity dish seems to be one of the strangest yet.
The dish is called 'Stoplight Chicken' and it consists of pieces of boneless chicken that have been generously coated in flavor crystals. These flavor crystals come in three different varieties, including banana, strawberry and melon. The restaurant came up with the idea for fruit-flavored fried chicken after the success of its cheese-coated chicken nuggets.
Thus far, the reactions to the new dish have been mixed. While the colorful fried chicken may not be the tastiest dish, it certainly does provide a pretty picture.
