Ingredients
- 1 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 2 medium dill pickles
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Begin by finely chopping the capers and dill pickles. You want a fine dice to ensure the sauce has a smooth texture.
Step 2
Chop the fresh dill and parsley into fine bits. The herbs should be as fine as possible without being minced.
Step 3
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt with the chopped capers and pickles.
Step 4
Add the finely chopped dill and parsley to the mixture.
Step 5
Pour in the lemon juice and add the Dijon mustard, stirring well to combine.
Step 6
Season the mix with black pepper and garlic powder. Stir all the ingredients until the tartare sauce reaches a homogenous and creamy consistency.
Step 7
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning as necessary. If a sharper flavor is preferred, an additional squeeze of lemon juice can be added.
Step 8
Cover the sauce and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
