How to Make Homemade Chick-Fil-A Sauce
This recipe is as easy as simply adding all the ingredients to a bowl and mixing together. I like to mix them together in a small bowl using a whisk, and then transfer into a mason jar for easy storage in the fridge.
In a small bowl, simply combine 1/2 cup mayo, 2 tbsp BBQ sauce, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, and 1 tsp lemon juice. Whisk together until combined and voila! Delicious and easy homemade Chick-Fil-A sauce.
Tips for Success
- I recommend using basic, plain ingredients if you want the sauce to taste super similar to the original Chick-Fil-A version.
- I think this sauce would be delicious with a little added kick of spice! You could use a spicy BBQ sauce or even add in 1/4 tsp of cayenne. Swapping hot honey for the regular honey would also be a yummy option!
- If you don’t want to make your own avocado oil mayo, I love the Chosen brand. I have found it is available at most grocery stores!
