A refreshing and tangy Lemon Dill Yogurt Sauce that combines creamy Greek yogurt with bright lemon juice, fresh herbs, and a hint of garlic. Perfect as a versatile condiment or dip to enhance seafood, grilled vegetables, or salads.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon roughly chopped dill
  • 1 tablespoon roughly chopped parsley
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Mix together. In a mixing bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, chopped dill, chopped parsley, minced garlic, kosher salt, and ground black pepper until all ingredients are well combined.
  2. Let it sit. For the best flavor, allow the sauce to rest for 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature. This resting time lets the herbs and garlic infuse the yogurt with vibrant, melded flavors.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for optimal flavor and brightness.
  • This sauce pairs wonderfully with grilled fish, roasted vegetables, or as a spread in sandwiches.
  • Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
  • Adjust garlic and lemon juice amounts to taste for a milder or more tangy sauce.
