This is just from personal memory but if i remember correctly; I like the version from "Reign of Fire" (2002) where they have 2 different chemical pouches in their mouths that mix and create fire. Kinda how snakes have a venom sack but these are two different chemicals that when combined create fire.

Or pretty much exactly how the bombardier beetle creates explosion

Underrated film. It was the explanation that I immediately thought of when I read the post.

Hell yea, I loved that movie. Not a ton of good dragon movies growing up. It was great.
