Raising Cane’s crispy chicken tenders don’t have a ton of flavor in the breading – it’s a simple (but delicious) flaky coating on juicy chicken tenders. That leaves all the flavor for the yummy dipping sauce. You can get larger containers of the sauce for extra at the restaurants but it’s much easier to just make it at home. 🙂

What does Cane’s sauce taste like?

Cane’s Sauce is tangy with a little bit of spice and full of flavor.It’s definitely creamy with hints of salt and garlic – so good! Perfect dipping sauce for their chicken, fries and that yummy bread!

Does this sauce need to be refrigerated?

Yes – because of the mayo, Cane’s sauce does need to be refrigerated. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks. I just make small batches as I go. I prefer theseglass food storage containers.
