When it comes to bold flavors and flame-grilled perfection, Oporto stands out with its Portuguese-inspired menu. Among its exciting sauce collection, the Oporto Prego Dipping Sauce is a standout. Inspired by traditional Portuguese cuisine, this sauce offers a unique blend of savory, tangy, and herbaceous flavors that turn an ordinary meal into a true culinary adventure.
Inspired by Portugal’s Iconic Prego Flavors
The word “prego” may translate to “nail” in Portuguese, but in the culinary world, it refers to the famous Portuguese steak sandwich marinated in garlic, vinegar, and pepper-based sauces. Oporto’s Prego Dipping Sauce brings this classic taste experience into a creamy, versatile dip that captures the essence of Portuguese street food.
A Warm, Inviting Aroma and Flavor
From the first glance, the Prego Dipping Sauce’s warm color signals depth and personality. Open the lid, and a fragrant wave of garlic, herbs, and subtle spices instantly awakens your senses, hinting at the delicious flavors waiting inside.
Your first dip starts with a robust garlic-herb savory base, followed by a refreshing tanginess that livens up each bite. A mild hint of pepper and aromatic spices adds complexity without overwhelming your palate. Unlike many sauces that are either too fiery or too plain, this sauce offers a perfect balance — bold yet approachable.
Perfect Pairing for Chicken, Chips, and More
The Prego Dipping Sauce is a fantastic match for Oporto’s signature flame-grilled chicken. It adds an extra layer of moisture and depth, enhancing the natural smoky char. But don’t stop there — it’s equally delicious with crispy chips, chicken strips, burgers, and wraps. Many Oporto fans enjoy drizzling it over wraps or burgers to bring out a tangy zing in every bite.
A Versatile Sauce for Creative Pairings
What sets this sauce apart is its versatility. Use it as a dip, a spread, or mix it with other Oporto favorites like the Mayo Dipping Sauce or Original Chilli Dipping Sauce to create your own custom flavor. The Prego Dipping Sauce doesn’t overpower your food but rather supports and elevates the natural flavors of each dish.
Why You’ll Love Oporto’s Prego Dipping Sauce

It allows you to enjoy the rich, smoky flavors of Oporto’s dishes while adding a distinctly Portuguese twist. Whether you’re dining in, taking out, or enjoying Oporto at home, this sauce makes each bite memorable.
