- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1.5 tablespoons capers
- 1 clove garlic clove, minced

Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the sour cream and Greek yogurt until smooth and well combined.
Finely chop the fresh dill and add it to the bowl along with the lemon juice and Dijon mustard. Stir to incorporate.

Add the minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything thoroughly until the sauce is smooth and evenly combined.
Drizzle in the olive oil and gently stir to add a bit of creaminess and shine to the sauce.
Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if desired.
Cover and refrigerate the sauce for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a sauce, dip, or dressing. Enjoy with fish, roasted vegetables, or any dish of your choice!
