I always have a ton of fun re-creating our favorite restaurant dishes. My KFC Coleslaw copycat is the prime example. We never buy it anymore. I know what goes in and I can adjust it to our likings. No secret ingredients, no flavorings, just simple pantry staples.
This Chick-fil-A copycat sauce is quite spot on when it comes to texture and flavors. My family agrees! We enjoy it with waffle fries, chicken nuggets, fish sticks or even on burgers! It’s a perfect dipping sauce and a fun one to make.
Besides, once I realized how easy it is to make, there was no going back. I always have the ingredients on hand so I can whip up this sauce anytime!
Ingredients:
- mayo
- yellow mustard
- BBQ sauce
- honey
- lemon juice
How to make Chick-fil-A sauce at home from scratch?
- Start by gathering ingredients and measuring cups.
- Mix everything together in a bowl.
- Cover and chill for at least 20 minutes so the flavors can combine.
- Serve.
How long does it last?
If you don’t eat it all at once, store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Stir before serving.
Can I make it without mayo?
If you want to avoid mayo, you can try plain Greek yogurt. Also, unflavored (no garlic) hummus may work too. You just need a creamy base that is mild in flavor.
