10 min cook

Serves 8

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups Plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 Large Fresh jalapeno peppers
  • 1 tbsp Fresh dill, minced
  • 3 Garlic cloves, minced or zested
  • 2 tbsp Lemon, juiced
  • 2 tbsp Fresh mint, minced
  • 1/2 Fresh English cucumber, grated through a cheese grater

Instructions

  1. Toast jalapeños in a dry non-stick pan until nicely charred on all sides, cover and allow to steam. Peel skins off and finely mince jalapeños.
  2. In a bowl, combine yogurt, garlic, mint, lemon juice, minced jalapeños, dill and grated cucumber. Mix well to combine then fold in olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  3. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld (or overnight is best). Serve with pita chips or vegetables.
  4. Chef's Note: For best results, grate cucumber over paper towels then wrap the paper towels around the grated cucumber and squeeze out as much water as possible before adding to tzatziki.
