Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley (chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves or press them through a garlic press for a smooth consistency.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and honey. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
While whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to ensure the sauce emulsifies and becomes creamy.
Add the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh parsley to the mixture. Stir thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if needed—add a little more lemon juice for tanginess or honey for sweetness, depending on your preference.
Transfer the sauce to a serving bowl and, if desired, sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the top for a pop of color and smoky flavor.
Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days to allow the flavors to meld. Stir well before serving if stored.
