OMG Cajun Dipping Sauce

Chef Brian Jeffery's Signature Recipe

Ingredients

• ½ cup mayonnaise
• ½ cup sour cream
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon hot honey
• 1 tablespoon prepared fresh horseradish
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons Louisiana-style hot sauce
• 1 teaspoon Infusion Blends® Cajun Delight Flavor-Infused Butter, softened

Tools

• Medium mixing bowl
• Silicone spoon spatula

Instructions

Step 1 — Prepare the Tomatoes

Slice the green tomatoes into ¼-inch slices.

Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Step 2 — Bread the Tomatoes

Place flour in one shallow bowl.

In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.

In a third bowl, combine the cornmeal, breadcrumbs, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Coat each tomato slice in flour, dip into the egg mixture, then coat generously in the cornmeal mixture.

Allow the coated tomatoes to rest for about 5 minutes before frying.

Step 3 — Fry Until Golden

Heat approximately ½ inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Carefully fry the tomatoes for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Step 4 — Make the OMG Cajun Dipping Sauce

Add all sauce ingredients to a medium mixing bowl.

Using a silicone spoon spatula, mix until smooth and creamy, blending the softened Infusion Blends® Cajun Delight Flavor-Infused Butter completely into the sauce.

Continue mixing until you've reached your desired consistency.

For even better flavor, refrigerate the sauce for 30 minutes before serving.
