Description

This Blooming Onion Sauce is a creamy, zesty, and slightly spicy dip inspired by the famous Outback Steakhouse version, perfect for pairing with fried appetizers like onion rings and chicken tenders.

  • 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine all the ingredients.
  2. Mix well until the sauce is smooth and fully incorporated.
