Easy 10 Minute Healthy Tzatziki Sauce

1 cup plain Greek Yogurt – I used nonfat plain greek yogurt

½ English cucumber (about ⅔ cup) – seeds removed, diced into small pieces

2 teaspoons olive oil

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest

1 tablespoon minced garlic – about 1 clove

¼ cup fresh chopped dill

½ teaspoon kosher salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Place the diced cucumber in a strainer over a bowl and sprinkle it with some salt. Let it sit for a few minutes to extract any excess moisture, then pat it lightly with a clean paper towel.
Then add the greek yogurt, cucumber, and the rest of the ingredients to a medium-sized bowl and mix it all together until it is combined into a creamy sauce.
Top with more fresh dill, some ground black pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Serve cold with pita chips, naan, or fresh chopped veggies.
