Cooked Chicken

Cooked Chicken Is a food item added in the 1.8 "Adventure Update" created from roasting Raw Chicken in a furnace. The Cooked Chicken heals 3 units of Hunger and 7.2 units of Food Saturation, making it slightly superior but considerably rarer than bread or Cooked Fish. Due to the modified drop tables of 1.8+, chicken as a food is more likely to be a byproduct of feather production than hunted for its own sake.

Behaviour
Cooked chicken can also be obtained by killing a chicken with fire, which is a more direct yet dangerous way of obtaining it. Eating the chicken raw only restores 33% [] as much hunger points and has a chance of giving you food poisoning.
