Honey Mustard Chick-fil-A

Honey Mustard from Chick-fil-A is a popular sauce that has the perfect balance between honey sweetness and mustard tartness. This sauce is a favorite of many fans because it complements their chicken nuggets and sandwiches as well as fries. You can now make this simple sauce at home to enjoy with any meal.

Ingredients you’ll need:

• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup Yellow Mustard
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (for creaminess)
• Lemon juice, 1 tablespoon (for tanginess).
• Add 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar to your recipe for added acidity
• Salt to taste (optional)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Mix the Mustards

Combine the Dijon and yellow mustard in a small bowl. The Dijon mustard provides a little extra tang, while the yellow mustard gives it its traditional flavor.

2. Add Honey

Pour in the Honey. Honey gives the sauce sweetness and helps to balance the tang of the mustard. Mix the Honey into the mustard mixture.

3. Mix in the Mayonnaise.

Add the mayonnaise to the bowl. Mayonnaise gives the honey mustard an ideal creamy, smooth texture for dipping. The mayonnaise also helps to enhance the flavor and makes it richer.

4. Add lemon juice and vinegar:

Pour a bit more tang, add the apple cider vinegar and lemon juice. These ingredients will give the sauce some sharpness and brighten its flavor, similar to the honey mustard from the original Chick-fil-A.

5. Mix and Taste

Mix the ingredients until they are well blended and smooth. Add a pinch of sea salt to the sauce if necessary to bring out its flavors.

6. Chill and serve:

Allow the honey mustard to cool in the fridge for 30 minutes or more before serving. This allows the flavors to combine and make them even more delicious.
