Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Add the mayonnaise and ketchup to a medium mixing bowl.
Stir in the Worcestershire sauce until the mixture is smooth.
Add the garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper.
Whisk until the sauce is fully blended and creamy.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
Serve chilled with chicken tenders, fries, sandwiches, or burgers.

Notes

Refrigerate the sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to fully blend and improves the overall taste.
Use full-fat mayonnaise for the most authentic restaurant-style flavor and creamy texture.
If the sauce tastes too thick, add a small splash of water or lemon juice and stir until smooth.
Adjust the pepper if you prefer a stronger peppery flavor similar to restaurant versions.
A pinch of sugar or honey can be added if you prefer a slightly sweeter dipping sauce.
Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days. Stir before serving.
This sauce pairs especially well with fried chicken tenders, french fries, burgers, and sandwiches.
