Our chicken fillets are made with all white meat, and then lightly breaded and seasoned. We think they taste great just as they are, but for those who like something a little saucy, we polled the YVF Team for some dipping suggestions: Jesse goes for a mix of Frank’s Red Hot, pepper and BBQ sauce, Amberlee likes to alternate her dips between honey and spicy BBQ sauce, James keeps it simple with straight up Cholula hot sauce, Rebecca mixes plum sauce and Sriracha, and Terry prefers things on the sweeter side, like plum sauce, sweet n’ sour, or just some good old honey.
