Customization & Variations: While this recipe nails the classic Raising Cane's profile, feel free to make it your own.

If you prefer a milder garlic flavor, garlic powder can be used in place of garlic salt, allowing you to adjust the overall saltiness to your preference. You can also omit the optional sesame seeds for a simpler, classic finish, or even sprinkle a touch of Parmesan cheese for an added savory layer.
