Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat for best flavor)
  • 2 tbsp Frank’s Red Hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 and 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 and 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt (plus additional to taste)

  2. Adjust Consistency: If you plan to use this as a salad dressing, gradually add water or milk one tablespoon at a time, stirring after each addition until reaching your preferred consistency.
  3. Chill (Optional): Refrigerate the mixture for 1 hour to allow flavors to meld and deepen, enhancing the overall taste. This step is optional but recommended for the best flavor experience.

  • Adding water or milk helps tailor the thickness, especially useful when using as a salad dressing.
  • Keep refrigerated and consume within 5-7 days for optimal freshness.
