Ingredients
All you need to make sriracha aioli is mayonnaise, garlic, pepper and sriracha. You can make homemade mayo, or you can use your favorite brand from the store.
Sriracha is a spicy chili sauce, but you can replace it with any other chili sauce if you wish.
Instructions
First, grate or finely chop the garlic clove. In a bowl, combine the garlic with mayonnaise, sriracha and fresh black pepper. Stir to combine. Optionally, add more pepper or sriracha to taste.
Serve the sriracha aioli immediately, or keep it refrigerated until serving.
Top tips
Here is my best advice to make the perfect sriracha aioli:
- Make sure to chop the garlic into very fine pieces. You definitely don't want to bite into a big chunk of raw garlic!
- Use a good quality mayonnaise that you like. You can use low fat mayo if you prefer.
- You can also make this dip by simply combining store bought aioli and sriracha.
Serving suggestions
This chili aioli is served as a dip as a snack, appetizer or side dish. You can serve it with a variety of dishes, but here are some of my favorites:
Potatoes: Air fryer potatoes, air fryer potato wedges, honey roasted potatoes, oven baked sweet potato fries.

Chicken: Air fryer breaded chicken, air fryer buffalo chicken legs, chicken spedini, lemon pepper chicken breast.
