Description

A cool and vibrant Fresh Mint Garlic Sauce made with creamy yogurt, fresh mint, lemon, and garlic. Perfect for seafood, chicken, wraps, kebabs, and roasted vegetables.


Ingredients

3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (Fage Greek Yogurt or Chobani Plain Greek Yogurt)

1 cup fresh mint leaves

3 tablespoons lemon juice

3 garlic cloves or 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Add yogurt, mint, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to a food processor and blend until smooth.

Taste and adjust seasoning until the balance fits your preference.

For a thicker texture, add a spoon of extra yogurt and blend again.

If making it by hand, chop mint finely, mince the garlic, and mix everything in a bowl until creamy.

Notes

To make the sauce thicker, add more yogurt and mix until you reach your preferred consistency.

To make it thinner, add a splash of lemon juice or water and stir.

Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Let the sauce rest for a few minutes before serving to allow flavors to blend smoothly.

This sauce pairs perfectly with seafood, chicken, kebabs, wraps, and roasted vegetables.
