Make Chicken Tenders and Other Easy Meals More Delicious with This Slightly Sweet, Tangy Dipping Sauce
Here's a simple, tangy sauce that you can use for drizzling, dunking, glazing, and seasoning. It's a building block of flavor for many dishes you'll find on my site. When you buy dipping sauces at the store, you're never quite sure how much sweetener or spice is added, but when you combine these simple ingredients to blend your own, you're totally in control.
Chadwick’s Checklist
What you need to know before you cook.
- Melt coconut oil and bring to room temperature before mixing with other sauce ingredients.
