Cece, this is ObxCliff...I used this recipe as a base for a sauce at work! I added chipotle in adobo, cilantro, garlic, used rice vinegar (not as acidic tasting) and a few other things and used it for a spiced rubbed grilled steak. It was great...good customer & server responses, too!!! Thanks for another great recipe!!!

Don't be afraid of the mayonnaise! This white sauce is wonderful! I have been using a variation of this white sauce when we grill chicken for over 20 years. I've never added the lemon juice or the salt, but I do increase the pepper a bit to my taste. And I do half regular mayo and half light mayo. I do chicken halves, and baste with the sauce the last 30 minutes of cooking time, reserving some of the sauce to use at the table. To season the chicken, I use Cavender's Greek Seasoning, which is pretty much a mix of the spices you used. I've never posted the recipe I've used, but ran across yours and wanted to give it the 5 star rating it deserves!
