Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole (medium) Cucumber
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 clove (minced) Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) Dill (fresh)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 whole (large) Pita bread
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil (for pita chips)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt (for pita chips)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the cucumber yogurt dip: Peel the cucumber and grate it using a box grater. Place the grated cucumber in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out the excess water.
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated cucumber, Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill.
Prepare the pita chips: Cut the pita bread into wedges (8 pieces per pita). Arrange the wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Brush the pita wedges evenly with the olive oil mixture on both sides.
Bake the pita wedges in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crisp. Flip halfway through baking. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
Remove the pita chips from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Serve the cucumber yogurt dip with the warm pita chips on the side. Enjoy!
