Ingredients

• 1 cup Greek yogurt (unsweetened, full-fat)
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 1 clove Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill (finely chopped)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the cucumber, then grate it using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated cucumber in a clean kitchen towel or paper towel and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible. This step ensures the tzatziki doesn't become watery.

Step 2

Peel and finely mince the garlic clove or use a garlic press for a smoother texture.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, dill, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Stir everything together until well mixed. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your preference.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step is optional but recommended for maximum flavor.

Step 6

Serve the tzatziki chilled as a dip with raw low-carb vegetables like cucumber slices, bell pepper sticks, or celery, or use it as a sauce for grilled meats or keto-friendly flatbreads.
