    THE BEST CHICK FIL A SAUCE

    If you've ever been to Chick Fil A, there's a good chance that you've had their sauce.

    But, if you've never had it and are wondering what is Chick Fil A sauce is, it's a creamy, tangy, and sweet dipping sauce with a flavor like nothing else. 

    Honesty, I don't even know what to compare this homemade Chick Fil A sauce recipe too since it has such a unique flavor.

    Seriously, the sauce taste so good, and nothing really compares to it.

    And since I'm such a fan of it, I decided to see if I could come up with my own version that's just as tasty.

    Well, spoiler alert, I did. And this copycat dipping sauce recipe is amazing. Not only is this sauce just as tasty, but this homemade Chick Fil A sauce takes just 1 minute to make!

    Now, my favorite thing to pair with the sauce is our copycat Chick Fil A chicken nuggets or Chick Fil A grilled nuggets, so you'll definitely want to make those chicken nuggets along with the sauce! And it actually goes great on this copycat recipe for the Chick Fil A southwest salad and Chick Fil A grilled chicken sandwich.

    Oh, and for the full experience, you might as well make this Chick Fil A cookie recipe to complete the meal.

    Why This Recipe Works

    Quick and easy to make. You can have this famous dipping sauce ready to use in just 1 minute!

    Legit flavor. This copycat recipe seriously tastes just like the sauce from Chick Fil A. It's delicious!

    Versatile. You can pair the addictive sauce with so many things, from waffles fries and chicken tenders to veggies and salads.

    Ingredients

    So, the Chick Fil A sauce ingredients are super simple. You only need 4 ingredients, and you might have everything you need in your fridge and pantry!

    Here are the ingredients for this copycat Chick Fil A sauce:

    • ⅓ cup mayonnaise
    • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
    • 3 tablespoons honey
    • 1 ½ teaspoons rice vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon BBQ sauce (optional)

    How simple is that?

    Now, as you can see, the BBQ sauce is an optional add-in. However, I think the sauce is just as delicious without it, so you can choose whatever you want! And if you like BBQ sauce, you'll want to make this Chick Fil A honey roasted BBQ sauce next.

    Oh, and by the way, if you have some mayonnaise left over after whipping up this recipe, you can always put it to good use by making our copycat Wingstop ranch dressing recipe next.

    How To Make Chick Fil A Sauce

    1. Combine the ingredients: Add the mayonnaise, yellow mustard, honey, rice vinegar, and BBQ sauce if you're using it in a medium bowl.

    3. Serve: Pair the famous homemade dipping sauce with anything you want, like french fries and chicken nuggets, and enjoy!

    Tips To Make The Best Recipe

    • Use a smoky barbecue sauce for the best flavor.
    • Swap the yellow mustard for dijon mustard or spicy brown mustard to add a little spice to the sauce.
    • Refrigerate the sauce for an hour before using it to let all the flavors meld together.

    How To Store Chick Fil A Sauce

    In the fridge: Store the copycat Chick Fil A sauce in an airtight container or sealable glass jar, and it'll last in the fridge for about 4 days.

    In the freezer: Transfer the sauce to a freezer-safe container, and you can freeze it for about 4 months. Let the sauce thaw in the fridge overnight before using.

    FAQS About This Chick Fil A Sauce Recipe

    What is the Chick Fil A sauce made of?

    The Chick Fil A sauce is made of mayo, yellow mustard, honey, BBQ sauce, and rice vinegar. Yup, 5 ingredients are all you need to make it! And you really don't even need the barbecue sauce for it to taste amazing. I've made it with and without and I think it's equally as good, that's why I listed the barbecue sauce as optional!

    What is the secret ingredient in Chick Fil A sauce?

    The secret ingredient in the Chick Fil A sauce is definitely honey. It balances out the smokey barbecue sauce and gives it a slightly sweet flavor and great texture. It's such an underrated ingredients addition that really adds an element the sauce can't do without. So, with that said, don't skip out on the honey - the sauce simply won't taste the same without it.

    What is Chick-fil-A most popular sauce?

     The most popular sauce at Chick Fil A has to be this one - hence why it's just called "Chick Fil A sauce" - or the Chick Fil A honey roasted BBQ sauce. Both are super unique, and you really can't get the dipping sauce flavor anywhere else. Well, unless you make this recipe to recreate the signature Chick Fil A sauce!

    Does Chick-Fil-A make their own sauces?

    Yes, they make their own sauces, and all of them are unique to the restaurant. You can find many of the sauces in bottles at the grocery store, or you can make them from scratch, like with this recipe.

      If you put this and the sauce out of the container from Chick Fil A in front of me I would not be able to tell the difference. I'm serious.
