This delicate, yet scrumptious mayo mustard sauce makes an ordinary burger taste extraordinary.
This may not be headline news, but I love watching cooking shows!
I absolutely adore Ina Garten. Seriously, she can do no wrong.
Her sweet attitude and relaxed sense of humor makes you feel like you can do anything in the kitchen. She teaches you how to entertain with style and simplicity. She can “wow” her guests all while keeping cool.
I am a firm believer that the food I serve at my get together be prepared ahead of time so that I too can enjoy the party and visit with my guests.
Whenever I find a tasty recipe that can be made the day before and can be used in a variety of ways, I am pretty thrilled. Ina Garten’s recipe for Mustard Mayo sauce is delicious and the perfect spread or dipping sauce for burgers, chicken or salmon. And it goes so perfectly with my Sideline Sausage Skewer Bites. 
Add this Mustard Mayo to grilled chicken sausage burgers and everyone will gobble them up. 
I caramelize some sweet onions first. 
To the same pan I sauté the yellow peppers. 
After spreading a good serving of sauce on the rolls, I pile on the chicken sausage, onions, peppers and a heaping mound of fresh peppery arugula. 
The colors are gorgeous! 
A mouthwatering and flavorful burger for the family or to serve at a casual get together. 
Do you have a make ahead sauce?

Chicken Burgers are my favourite burger! This sounds so good!
Thank you!
Wow! These look so good! I love to make all different kinds of burgers and sliders. I’ll add this and try it out.
Burgers are so fun to build! Hope you like this one!
I love the concept of chicken sausage as a burger – how creative!
Thanks, Laura!
That entire sandwich looks delicious, but that mustard mayo is worth the entire blog post! Thanks so much for sharing – pinning!
Yes, this mustard may is dreamy!
I cannot wait to try this – I bought some ground chicken to make my own patties this weekend!
Woohoo! Enjoy and have a great weekend!
Oh my word this looks amazing! Definitely want to try this as soon as I’m done with Whole 30!
These look amazing!!
I love dipping sauces that have mayo in them. This looks super yummy and easily keto adaptable!
Oh these look absolutely incredible!! Need to try them. Also, Ina is my idol and her style speaks to me on a spiritual level. Who wouldn’t love that? 😉
There’s no one like Ina!
Sounds like a super flavorful dish!
Thanks!
Oh yum this looks very delicious. I had never made chicken burgers before but I will safe this for when the sun comes out and the grill gets dusted. thanks for sharing.
The chicken sausage cooks up nicely in a skillet too! Enjoy!
We made these a while back and loved them so much – especially the sauce! I just mixed up the sauce again tonight for our hamburgers. So good.
I make this with homemade mayo and mustard (made from a blend of brown and yellow sprouted mustard seeds), and heavy whipping cream soured with citric acid! It’s amazing how good the flavor is when everything is made from scratch with quality ingredients. Your friends will be quite impressed!!! If you get a chance, get some coarsely ground organic pork and make your own sausage for the burgers. I don’t buy sausage anymore. Mine tastes so much better.
Thanks for this!
I was trying to give this 5 stars but it wouldn’t let me. ??
I agree, from scratch is always so much better! Thank you for the sausage tip. I look forward to whipping up my own version!
