Ingredients
- 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 2 teaspoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by peeling the garlic clove and mincing it finely. This will ensure that the garlic flavor is evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
Step 2
Chop the fresh dill and parsley finely. Fresh herbs add a bright flavor to the sauce, so ensure they are well minced.
Step 3
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt, minced garlic, chopped dill, chopped parsley, and lemon juice.
Step 4
Drizzle in the olive oil while stirring. The oil will help in balancing the tanginess of the yogurt with a slight richness.
Step 5
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, mixing thoroughly to combine all the ingredients. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 6
Once all ingredients are well combined, transfer the sauce to a serving dish or an airtight container if planning to store for later use.
Step 7
Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. The sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Step 8
Before serving, give the sauce a quick stir and enjoy it as a dip, spread, or dressing with your favorite dishes.
