<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Ingredient Notes and Substitutions</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Ground beef</strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Opt for a leaner blend to avoid too much grease, and be sure to drain off any in the pan after browning.&nbsp;You could also substitute ground chicken or turkey if you&#8217;d like.<br></li>



<li><strong>Canned beans</strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Pinto and kidney beans are tender and hearty. You could swap in black or white beans, but the overall flavor will change a bit.<br></li>



<li><strong>Diced tomatoes and green chiles</strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Choose the fire roasted versions of both to add that &#8220;simmered all day&#8221; flavor to your Wendy&#8217;s copycat chili.<br></li>



<li><strong>Spices</strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Onion powder and cumin are the base for us to build on. New Mexico chili powder is slightly fruity, but you can use a regular chili powder blend if needed.&nbsp;<br><br>Stick with smoked paprika as sweet paprika has a different flavor profile.</li>
</ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="843" height="504" data-pin-nopin="true" src="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/wendys-chili-copycat-5-WIDE.jpg" alt="adding beans to wendy's copycat chili" class="wp-image-106318" srcset="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/wendys-chili-copycat-5-WIDE.jpg 843w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/wendys-chili-copycat-5-WIDE-300x179.jpg 300w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/wendys-chili-copycat-5-WIDE-768x459.jpg 768w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/wendys-chili-copycat-5-WIDE-150x90.jpg 150w" sizes="(max-width: 843px) 100vw, 843px" /></figure>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How To Make Copycat Wendy’s Chili</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">First, brown the ground beef in a large pot. Then, add the rest of the ingredients and simmer until done. It’s that simple!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I like to drain and rinse the canned beans when I make this dish, but it’s not required.&nbsp;<br><br>Keep in mind that the extra liquid will affect the consistency, so you may need to leave out the additional water.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="843" height="504" data-pin-nopin="true" src="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/copycat-wendys-chili.jpg" alt="stirring a pot of copycat wendy's chili" class="wp-image-95677" srcset="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/copycat-wendys-chili.jpg 843w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/copycat-wendys-chili-300x179.jpg 300w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/copycat-wendys-chili-768x459.jpg 768w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/copycat-wendys-chili-150x90.jpg 150w" sizes="(max-width: 843px) 100vw, 843px" /></figure>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Helpful Tips and Tricks</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Customize the spices.</strong>&nbsp;Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes based on how spicy you like your food.&nbsp;<br><br>Cumin and chili powder also adds some heat, so feel free to experiment with those amounts as well.&nbsp;Taste as you go and add more until it’s just right.<br></li>



<li><strong>Develop those flavors.</strong>&nbsp;The longer chili simmers, the more the flavors come together.&nbsp;<br><br>While this copycat Wendy&#8217;s chili recipe tastes delicious either way, you could easily leave it on the stove for 3 to 4 hours if you’d like.<br></li>



<li><strong>Want to save some time?</strong>&nbsp;I love making a big batch of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/best-ever-crockpot-pulled-pork/">crockpot ground beef</a>&nbsp;as meal prep for future recipes.&nbsp;<br><br>Just portion it out into storage bags and freeze. Then, add it to your chili, soup, or baked dishes without even having to thaw it first!</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This creamy sauce is the perfect sauce for dipping, spreading, or drizzling! I&#8217;ve even used this as a honey mustard salad dressing before!&nbsp;<br><br>The first time that you make this easy recipe, you&#8217;ll wonder where it&#8217;s been your whole life!&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I love the sweetness of honey paired with the kick of mustard flavor. <br><br>We always serve this honey mustard sauce recipe with chicken nuggets, fries, and all of our other favorite foods. It&#8217;s even good with fresh veggies! </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I think that the homemade version brings a tangy flavor that you don&#8217;t get anywhere else. And the best part? It&#8217;s a breeze to make this creamy dipping sauce!<br><br>Follow the printable recipe card below to get all the details! </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Honey Mustard Sauce</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Nothing compares to the original Wendy’s honey mustard dipping sauce, but this recipe comes pretty darn close!&nbsp;<br><br>Plus, you only need five ingredients that are probably already in your fridge and pantry.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Honey mustard dipping sauce is fantastic for&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/air-fryer-chicken-nuggets-from-frozen/">chicken nuggets</a></strong>,&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/air-fried-frozen-french-fries/">fries</a></strong>, or even&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/air-fryer-pigs-in-blanket/">pigs in a blanket</a></strong>.&nbsp;<br><br>I also like to use it when I make our version of&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/outback-copycat-alice-springs-chicken/">Outback’s Alice Springs Chicken</a></strong>.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Honey Mustard Recipe Tips</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Let it sit overnight.</strong> While it’s perfectly fine to use your homemade honey mustard right away, the flavor is noticeably better the longer the ingredients have to meld together.<br></li>



<li><strong>Want a larger batch?</strong> Easily double or triple the amounts for parties or if you want to keep a jar of this honey mustard sauce on hand.<br></li>



<li><strong>Make it spicy.</strong>&nbsp;For a little extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne powder or a dash of your favorite hot sauce.</li>
</ul>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Honey Mustard Sauce FAQ</h3>



<div class="schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block"><div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1729012701694"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>How long does homemade honey mustard last?</strong><br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">When stored in an airtight container, this honey mustard sauce should keep for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator. Give it a good stir before using it in case any of the ingredients start to separate.</p> </div> <div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1729012745280"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>What brands did you use for this honey mustard recipe?</strong> <br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">Feel free to use whatever you have on hand, but I’ve found that these brands produce a flavor that’s closest to the Wendy’s version.<br/><br/><strong>Mayonnaise</strong> &#8211; Hellmans or Best Food are my preferred brands. Miracle Whip has added sugar and spices, making it both sweeter and spicier, and not a great choice for this honey mustard recipe.<br/><br/><strong>Honey</strong> &#8211; Most varieties you find at the store are filtered to remove pollen and prevent them from crystallizing too quickly. As a result, these tend to be much sweeter and may have a sickly sweet aftertaste. Look for bottles labeled as raw honey, or buy some from your local beekeeper.<br/><br/><strong>Yellow mustard</strong> &#8211; I use Gulden’s, which I believe is available at most stores in the US. Out of all of the ingredients, this one has the most wiggle room as far as brand goes.<br/><br/><strong>Dijon</strong> &#8211; Grey Poupon is my top choice, and what sets it apart is the small amount of white wine. Not only does this add acidity, but the brightness helps to balance the natural earthy flavor.<br/><br/><strong>Lemon juice</strong> &#8211; Freshly squeezed is going to have a better flavor than bottled. You should only need about half a lemon for this honey mustard recipe.</p> </div> <div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1729012773541"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>What are my favorite ways to use this creamy honey mustard sauce?</strong> <br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">The simple ingredients listed on the recipe card prove that this quick honey mustard sauce could be used with just about any good food. Add this tangy sauce to french fries, chicken fingers, sweet potato fries, chicken tenders, crispy chicken nuggets, baked chicken breasts, pork chops, air fryer chicken strips, and more. <br/><br/>You can even use this favorite dipping sauce to mix with baby spinach or to add some flavor to Brussels sprouts. <br/><br/>I always pair this delicious honey mustard recipe with my homemade chicken nuggets because this delicious sauce is a great recipe to add a little bit of flavor. You can literally pair this honey mustard dip with so many different things! </p> </div> </div>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I don’t get fast food often, but when I do, I always go for Wendy’s apple pecan chicken salad!&nbsp;<br><br>The way that the tangy vinaigrette contrasts the sweet fruit and savory meat is almost intoxicating.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It&#8217;s a great hearty salad and is perfect for low-carb health. The crispy apples paired with the tender chicken create the perfect salad taste and texture.&nbsp;<br><br>It&#8217;s one of my go-to meals where I know I&#8217;ll get delicious bite after bite.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">It&#8217;s a true dinner salad and one that the whole family will love. It has a rich fall flavor to it, but you can easily eat this signature salad anytime that you want.&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="843" height="504" data-pin-nopin="true" src="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Wendys-Apple-Pecan-Salad-1-WIDE.jpg" alt="apple pecan salad ingredients" class="wp-image-33913" srcset="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Wendys-Apple-Pecan-Salad-1-WIDE.jpg 843w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Wendys-Apple-Pecan-Salad-1-WIDE-300x179.jpg 300w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Wendys-Apple-Pecan-Salad-1-WIDE-768x459.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 843px) 100vw, 843px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wendy’s Apple Pecan Salad</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We’re working with a&nbsp;<em>lot&nbsp;</em>of strong tastes here: between the apples, chicken, cheese, and vinaigrette, it’s like a burst of flavor in every bite!&nbsp;<br><br>Balance the ingredients in the way that you like best and make this Wendy&#8217;s pecan salad recipe totally your own.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I’ve also replicated Applebee’s delicious&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/spicy-queso-blanco-recipe/">queso blanco</a>&nbsp;</strong>dip! Creamy with a kick, this is a great game day appetizer that everyone will love.&nbsp;<br><br>You can also check out my copycat recipe for their savory&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/applebees-artichoke-spinach-dip/"><strong>spinach</strong>&nbsp;<strong>artichoke dip</strong></a>.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">And while this apple pecan chicken salad is almost a main course on its own, it’s also great served as a side.&nbsp;<br><br>Since we have chicken in our recipe, go for a main dish without protein. I recommend my&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/homemade-ravioli/">homemade ravioli</a></strong>&nbsp;&#8211; it’s easier and even tastier than you think!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you&#8217;re looking for more chicken salads, our <strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/light-chicken-dijon-salad-with-grapes/">Chicken Salad with Grapes and Apples</a></strong> is your next must-try!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Or try another fast food inspired salad with our <strong><a href="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/big-mac-salad/">Big Mac Salad</a>! </strong>It packs all the iconic burger flavors into a crisp, loaded salad topped with a homemade big mac dressing!</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wendy&#8217;s Pecan Salad Tips and Tricks</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Swap out the blue cheese.&nbsp;</strong>I know that not everyone is a fan of blue cheese, so I recommend feta, goat, or aged cheddar as a substitute.&nbsp;<br><br>These options will have a similar sharpness and texture.&nbsp;<br></li>



<li><strong>Achieve perfectly balanced flavors.&nbsp;</strong>Use 100% pomegranate juice, which you can find in the refrigerated juice section of your grocery store.&nbsp;<br><br>Don’t skip it! You need its sweetness to offset the vinegar in your dressing.<br></li>



<li><strong>Make ahead tip:&nbsp;</strong>You can prepare the dressing ahead of time. Just give it a good shake before pouring it over your Wendy’s apple pecan chicken salad.</li>
</ul>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="843" height="504" data-pin-nopin="true" src="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/wendys-apple-pecan-chicken-salad.jpeg" alt="apple pecan salad dressing in a bowl" class="wp-image-96669" srcset="https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/wendys-apple-pecan-chicken-salad.jpeg 843w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/wendys-apple-pecan-chicken-salad-300x179.jpeg 300w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/wendys-apple-pecan-chicken-salad-768x459.jpeg 768w, https://www.theslowroasteditalian.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/wendys-apple-pecan-chicken-salad-150x90.jpeg 150w" sizes="(max-width: 843px) 100vw, 843px" /></figure>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wendy&#8217;s Apple Pecan Chicken Salad Serving Suggestions</h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I recommend serving this apple and pecan salad immediately while everything is crisp and fresh. Don’t add the dressing until just before serving time!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As for your garnish, you can use fresh chives, cilantro, or basil if parsley is hard to come by.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Your homemade Wendy’s apple pecan salad will stay good in the fridge for 3 to 5 days untossed.&nbsp;<br><br>Once tossed in the dressing, I wouldn’t save your leftovers for any longer than a day.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Apple and Pecan Salad FAQs</h3>



<div class="schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block"><div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1737645871779"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>What is the purpose of the lemon juice in this recipe?</strong><br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">The lemon juice is used to coat the apples and keep them from browning. A pro-tip that you can use for any salad with apple slices in the future!</p> </div> <div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1737645889827"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>Can I use extra virgin olive oil in the vinaigrette?</strong><br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">Extra virgin olive oil would overpower your dressing. To keep your Wendy’s apple pecan salad light, tangy, and refreshing, use a very light olive oil or vegetable oil.</p> </div> <div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1737645909159"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>What is a good substitute for white wine vinegar?</strong><br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">Red wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar, and unseasoned rice vinegar are all good alternatives! <br/><br/>But <em>do not </em>use regular vinegar &#8211; the flavor profiles of the two are totally different and would not complement the apple and pecan salad.</p> </div> <div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1737645928867"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>Can I add different fruits to this Copycat Wendy&#8217;s Apple Pecan Chicken Salad recipe?</strong><br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">You can. I recommend using the tart cranberries as they add tons of flavors to each bite, but you can easily try red apples instead of tart apples or any other crisp apples that you want.<br/><br/>I also think that adding some grapes would be a really good option, too. </p> </div> <div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1737645951222"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>Can I make this big delicious salad in advance?</strong><br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">In my opinion, this chicken apple pecan salad is best served fresh. If you add the cooked chicken to the leafy greens too soon, it might become a bit of a soggy mess.<br/><br/>For the most wonderful flavors, make this apple pecan salad base blend fresh. </p> </div> <div class="schema-faq-section" id="faq-question-1737645974938"><strong class="schema-faq-question"><strong>Can I add other toppings to this Wendy’s salad?</strong><br/></strong> <p class="schema-faq-answer">You bet. I&#8217;m all about the crunchy pecans, but you can easily add other toppings to this dish. In addition to the blue cheese crumbles and the sweet cranberries, I think that some sunflower seeds would be a good idea! You can also change up the type of apples used and add diced green apples, too. Drizzle a little bit of maple syrup on top for added sweetness! <br/><br/>Just know that the way it&#8217;s written on the recipe card below is the copycat version of Wendy salad recipes, so any changes that you make will vary the flavor a bit.  </p> </div> </div>
