KFC Spicy Mayo Recipe

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp sriracha
  • 1 tsp Frank's RedHot sauce
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • ¼ tsp sugar
  • Salt to taste

Method
 

  1. Add the mayonnaise, sriracha, Frank's RedHot sauce, cayenne, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, apple cider vinegar, and sugar to a small bowl and whisk for 30 seconds until fully combined and streak-free.
  2. Taste and add a small pinch of salt if needed, then let the sauce rest for 5 minutes at room temperature before transferring to a serving bowl or squeeze bottle.

Notes

This sauce keeps in the fridge for up to 7 days and gets slightly thicker when cold, which actually makes it easier to spread on a bun. If you are making it ahead for a party, a double batch is worth it. The heat level is easy to adjust by going up or down on the cayenne in small increments.
