    Chick-fil-A Nuggets Sauce Tips

    Chicken Dipping Sauce FAQs

    Is chicken nugget sauce gluten-free?

    Check if you have gluten-free barbecue sauce. As long as your barbecue sauce is gluten-free, so is the sauce!

    How long does nugget sauce last in the fridge?

    This depends on the expiry date of the ingredients you're using, but generally, mayo-based sauces like this one will hold for as long as the condiments themselves. I guarantee you it won't last you even a week before you eat it all! Just store it in an air-tight container in the refrigerator and give it a stir when ready to use again.

      I just wondered if there's a specific brand of barbecue sauce that you use? A taste seem to vary so much that it would make a real difference in the sauce.

      We are keeping this recipe!!!
      It’s SO refreshing and nice to have
      this chicken nugget
      “healthy and delicious” recipe.
      Sure it does takes a little more effort to prepare .. other than just
      driving up to a fast food window,
      BUT…the taste, nutrition and quality is not lacking…
      like it is
      with the fast food versions.
      These are exceptionally delicious!!!
