WHO KNEW? Who knew honey mustard sauce could be so delicious and be so versatile? While coming up with a plan for some chicken tenders (baked) without as much flavor as fried, I thought how can I perk this up? Honey mustard sauce to the rescue and it only takes 4 ingredients! #readyinaminute
Yep, four ingredients, all of which you probably have on hand, which is so nice. The photo above with the ingredients shows the amount of honey mustard sauce that was LEFT OVER after we ate. I halved the recipe (and next time will quarter it for just two people). I found this recipe somewhere in Internet space but I have no idea where (not my recipe).
HONEY MUSTARD SAUCE
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1/2 tablespoon white vinegar
Mix and serve.
I asked ChatGPT what honey mustard would pair well with, and here is the response… (Source: ChatGPT (GPT-5), OpenAI)
Honey mustard sauce is super versatile — it goes well with both savory and slightly sweet dishes. Here are some great pairings:
🍗 Meats & Proteins
- Chicken – especially chicken tenders, nuggets, grilled chicken, or sandwiches
- Pork – pork chops, pork tenderloin, or ham
- Turkey – as a sandwich spread or glaze
- Salmon – brushed on before baking or grilling
🍟 Snacks & Sides
- French fries, sweet potato fries, or onion rings
- Pretzels (soft or crunchy)
- Roasted vegetables – carrots, Brussels sprouts, potatoes, or cauliflower
🥗 Salads & Wraps
- As a salad dressing, especially for chicken or bacon-based salads
- In wraps or grain bowls for a tangy-sweet flavor
🍔 Sandwiches & Burgers
- Great on chicken sandwiches, club sandwiches, or burgers
- Mix it into slaw for a creamy, zesty topping
🍯 Other Uses
- As a glaze for baked or grilled meats
- As a dipping sauce for charcuterie boards (pairs well with cheese and apples)
