Outback Steakhouse Tangy Tomato Salad Dressing Copycat Recipe

I love the tangy tomato dressing from the Outback Steakhouse, but they won’t sell it to you unless you are actually using it in the restaurant.

I learned this when I was craving it one night, so I decided to try a few things and I think this is what worked best. It’s not exact, but I think it’s pretty close.

So, this is my (totally made up) Outback Steakhouse Tangy Tomato dressing recipe.

Outback Steakhouse Tangy Tomato Salad Dressing Ingredients

• 2/3 cup of ketchup
• 1/4 cup of Catalina (or French) dressing
• 2/3 cup of sugar
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon of onion powder
• 1/8 teaspoon of chili powder (this adds the spice so use a little less if you don’t want too much… or just omit)
• 1/8 teaspoon of thyme

Outback Steakhouse Tangy Tomato Salad Dressing Directions

Mix all of these ingredients together over a boiling stove for a couple of minutes.

Cool, refrigerate, and enjoy!

Tangy Tomato Salad Dressing is Not Just For Salads

While I love this on a salad (and that’s the only way I eat it), you can do so much more with a recipe like this one. Here are eight ideas from the Daily Meal.

1. Make a dipping sauce
2. Make a marinade
3. Use it in braised dishes
4. Flavor fried chicken
5. Make a stir fry
6. Make hot dip
7. Use it in bruschetta
8. Flavor potato salad
