Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 clove Garlic (finely minced or grated)
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill (chopped, optional)
- 1 tablespoon Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, extra virgin olive oil, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Whisk together until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the minced garlic, dried oregano, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Continue stirring until all the spices are evenly combined.
If using fresh dill, fold it into the mixture for an added burst of fresh, herby flavor.
If the dressing is too thick for your liking, add water one tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition, until it reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more lemon juice for tanginess, salt for balance, or olive oil for richness.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or container and chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Optional: You can enjoy it immediately if you’re in a hurry!)
Serve as a salad dressing, dipping sauce, or drizzle over grilled or roasted vegetables, meats, or seafood. Enjoy!
