🧄 Making the Signature Cane’s Sauce

No fakeaway is complete without that iconic tangy-sweet sauce!
Combine light mayonnaise, low-sugar ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and your seasonings — garlic, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Refrigerate it for 30 minutes so it thickens and the flavors meld beautifully 🤤.

🍗 Preparing the Crispy Chicken

Here’s where the magic crunch happens:

Season chicken breast strips with paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Mix your dry coating — flour and potato starch — with more of those same spices.
Create a light, bubbly batter using sparkling water and a bit of flour mix.
Coat → dip → coat again, pressing firmly for those crispy “crunch clumps.”
Air fry at 190°C for 12–15 minutes, until golden and juicy.

✅ Tip: A light mist of cooking spray gives that perfect fried texture without excess oil.

🍟 Baking the Paprika Fries

Cut Carisma or white potatoes into crinkle fries, toss in paprika and salt, and bake at 200°C for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway.
They’ll come out crisp on the edges, soft in the middle — the ideal sidekick for your chicken tenders 😋.

🥣 Serve & Enjoy

Plate up your crispy tenders, golden fries, and a chilled scoop of Cane’s sauce.
One bite and you’ll forget it’s a “healthy” version — seriously, this fakeaway outperforms the real deal in both flavor and nutrition.
