Tik Tok got me again. Raising Cane's is an Amercian fast food restaurant and I saw lots of people eating or making this dish. I made it with the accompaniments it comes with in store (crinkle chips and thick bread) but it really could do with some salad!
The sauce is what everyone raves about, so much so that they serve it in a cup and charge $6 for it. To be honest it was nice but not the best. There are varying recipes so maybe mine wasn't quite right, some use paprika.
The Texas toast was great. As far as I can tell that's really any type of thick bread semi fried. Usually it's made with butter but I saw someone use mayo and got curious. Works really well, I'm guessing as mayo is olive oil based.
The prize though was the chicken! That seasoning it to die for. Crunchy, seasoned, amazing. Alix is chicken obsessed and he loved it. Would make again (a lot) but probably with Ranch.
