So we do our annual Christmas-Eve-Eve dinner and the last two years' dinners were based on movies (Elf and the Grinch).  I was totally going to go all Dickens this year and do a dinner based on A Chrimstmas Carol, but that's a pretty typical holiday meal first of all, and Christmas pudding has tons of alcohol in it so that was out.  So I was trying to figure out what to do and Jeff suggested fondue.  OK!  We did the meat, cheese and dessert.  And we made 2 dipping sauces for the chicken...this is supposedly the actual recipe for Benihana's ginger sauce.  It was gooooood.   We all highly recommend it.  Not just for fondue....any time you want to dip chicken into a bowl of gingery-goodness.  :)

Benihana's Ginger Sauce

1 yellow onion
2 Tbsp. peeled and grated fresh ginger
1/4 C. fresh lemon juice
1/2 C. white vinegar
1 C. soy sauce

Chop onion.  Grate ginger on a fine cheese grater or preferably a micro plane.  Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until well blended.  Serve with chicken and/or veggies and enjoy!
