Ingredients

• 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
• 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 clove Garlic (finely minced or grated)
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill (chopped, optional)
• 1 tablespoon Water (optional, for thinning)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the Greek yogurt, extra virgin olive oil, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Whisk together until smooth and creamy.

Step 2

Stir in the minced garlic, dried oregano, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Continue stirring until all the spices are evenly combined.

Step 3

If using fresh dill, fold it into the mixture for an added burst of fresh, herby flavor.

Step 4

If the dressing is too thick for your liking, add water one tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition, until it reaches your desired consistency.

Step 5

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more lemon juice for tanginess, salt for balance, or olive oil for richness.

Step 6

Transfer the dressing to a jar or container and chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Optional: You can enjoy it immediately if you’re in a hurry!)

Step 7

Serve as a salad dressing, dipping sauce, or drizzle over grilled or roasted vegetables, meats, or seafood. Enjoy!
