- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley

Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them, or use a garlic press for a smoother texture.
In a medium bowl, combine the minced garlic, mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, and olive oil. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and add it to the dip mixture. Season with salt and ground black pepper, then mix thoroughly.
Transfer the garlic dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle with a dash of paprika if desired for a pop of color.
Arrange the sliced hearts of palm on a serving platter surrounding the dip bowl.
Serve immediately or chill the dip covered in the fridge for up to 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
