Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Feta cheese, crumbled
- 120 grams Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat)
- 60 milliliters Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese and Greek yogurt. Use a fork to mash the feta into the yogurt until well incorporated but still slightly chunky.
Add the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and minced garlic to the bowl. Stir until combined.
Mix in the dried oregano, fresh dill, and honey, then season with salt and black pepper. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
If the dressing is too thick for your liking, stir in 1 tablespoon of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the dressing over salads, as a dip for vegetables, or as a sauce for grilled meats or seafood.
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
