Copycat Cane’s Sauce (Raising Cane’s style)
If you like nonfat greek yogurt, you’ll love this American snack — 10 minutes from craving to table. It is weeknight cooking that still hits your targets — 3 grams of protein per serving. It scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup Light mayo
- 1 tbsp Ketchup
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Coarse black pepper
- 1/4 tsp Paprika
- 1/4 tsp Celery salt
Steps
- Whisk the yogurt and mayo until completely smooth — the yogurt is the calorie cut, and nobody at the table will clock it once the spices land.
- Stir in the ketchup for the faint pink color and the Worcestershire for the savory backbone.
- Add the garlic powder, paprika, celery salt, and the black pepper last, tasting as you go; Cane’s sauce is pepper-forward above everything else.
- Rest it in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Fresh sauce tastes like seasoned mayo; rested sauce tastes like Cane’s, because the pepper blooms into the fat.
- Serve cold in a little ramekin with anything fried, or thin a spoonful with pickle brine for a drizzle over sandwiches. Keeps 5 days refrigerated.
