  • sweet and tangy honey mustard sauce (perfect with crispy baked chicken wings!)

  • horseradish mayo sauce
  • nutty tahini dip

5 easy and delicious dipping sauce recipes for every palate! Incredibly versatile, these easy sauces pair with pretty much anything dippable: steak fries, chicken nuggets, you name it!

Honey Mustard Sauce

This’s incredibly tasty and versatile dipping sauce is perfect for crispy chicken fingers or fries.

All you need are:

  • ¼ cup yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons mayo
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ½ teaspoon grated garlic
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Tip

Grating garlic clove on a microplane zester distributes it evenly and enhances the garlic flavor!

MY FAVORITE ZESTER!

This zester is my kitchen staple!! I use it for everything from zesting a lemon to grating a garlic clove to grating a nutmeg!!

BUY ON AMAZON

Spicy Ketchup

When you’re craving something with a kick, try this easy spicy ketchup!

All you need are:

  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • ½ tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon Sriracha

Horseradish Mayo

Ah, this’s such an addicting dipping sauce. I especially love it with a grilled steak, like lean tenderloin.

Simply mix together following ingredients:

  • ¼ cup mayo
  • 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika

Garlic Aioli

Not an authentic one, but nonetheless delicious!! Seriously, this’s my all-time favorite dip/sauce that you can always find in my fridge.

Spread it on a burger bun, or dip in artichoke leaves!!

You’ll need:

  • ½ cup mayo
  • 1 small garlic cloves grated
  • ½ tablespoon lemon juice

Tahini Dip

Nutty rich tahini makes the most incredible veggie dip!! I’d never complain snacking on carrots and cucumber when I have this dip!

All you need are:

  • ¼ cup tahini
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, grated
  • ½ teaspoon coarse kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons or more ice-cold water

Make-Ahead Tips:

Each sauce can be made ahead. In fact, some of these dipping sauces are best when prepared in advance, like garlic aioli. It helps the flavors get a chance to mingle together and get even more flavorful!

However, spicy ketchup or honey mustard sauce are great as a last minute sauce!
