Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by peeling the garlic clove and mincing it finely. This will ensure that the garlic flavor is evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
Chop the fresh dill and parsley finely. Fresh herbs add a bright flavor to the sauce, so ensure they are well minced.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt, minced garlic, chopped dill, chopped parsley, and lemon juice.
Drizzle in the olive oil while stirring. The oil will help in balancing the tanginess of the yogurt with a slight richness.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, mixing thoroughly to combine all the ingredients. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Once all ingredients are well combined, transfer the sauce to a serving dish or an airtight container if planning to store for later use.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. The sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Before serving, give the sauce a quick stir and enjoy it as a dip, spread, or dressing with your favorite dishes.
