Add all ingredients to a small bowl. Use a silicone spatula to mix until well-combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or 1-2 hours for the flavors to sufficiently meld.
Pro Tips
- The longer the flavors can meld together in the fridge, the better! Feel free to make the sauce a day ahead of time.
- Pickles: I like to use dill pickles. After finely dicing, I place them in between paper towels to absorb excess moisture to keep the salad crisp/not soggy.
- Serve this with: Big Mac Salad, in Burgers, Tuna Melts, Wraps, Chicken Nuggets, Baked Chicken Tenders, Fried Chicken Tenders, with French Fries, Onion Rings, Fried Pickles, and more!
Storage
- Store leftover sauce in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 7 days.
