If you love that iconic sweet and tangy dipping sauce from the chicken shop, you are going to be so happy with this version. It comes together in just a few minutes using pantry staples that you likely already have in your fridge or cupboard.

My biggest tip is to give the sauce a little time to sit in the refrigerator before you dig in. Letting it rest for about thirty minutes helps all those smoky and sweet flavors really come together for the best taste.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

5Instructions

  1. 1

    Grab a small mixing bowl and a whisk.

  2. 2

    Add the mayonnaise, barbecue sauce, mustard, honey, and apple cider vinegar into the bowl.

  3. 3

    Whisk everything together until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined.

  4. 4

    Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least thirty minutes to let the flavors blend.

  5. 5

    Give it one final stir before serving with your favorite crispy chicken or snacks.

Tips

Store any leftover sauce in a small airtight container in the fridge for up to one week. It tastes great with chicken tenders, but try using it as a spread on sandwiches or burgers for a little extra flavor.
