Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and pat dry. If desired, peel the cucumbers or leave the skin on for a rustic look.
Slice the cucumbers thinly using either a knife or a mandoline slicer for uniform pieces. Place the slices in a mixing bowl.
Finely chop the fresh dill and parsley. Set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, freshly squeezed lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Pour the yogurt dressing over the cucumber slices.
Sprinkle the chopped dill and parsley over the salad, and gently toss everything to combine. Make sure the cucumbers are evenly coated in the dressing.
Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice as desired.
Transfer the salad to a serving dish, cover, and let it chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors.
Serve cold as a refreshing side dish or snack.
