In 1947, Hienie’s opened their first store on 91st and Mackinaw, on the South Side of Chicago, selling just fish. A year later, they introduced chicken to their menu. After perfecting their recipe for fish and chicken, they needed a sauce to go with it. What was created is now a Southside tradition that has spawned its own Facebook page and is shipping orders around the world. The neon orange, spicy sauce along with Hienie’s unique flavors makes a mouthwatering, incomparable, savory taste.
Although its intended use was for fish and chicken, it has been noted as a zesty compliment to chips, pizza, eggs and countless other items. What was just a local secret has received numerous accolades from Chicago Tribune, Food Guide, WLS 190 North and WTTW Secrets of the City TV shows.
