TZATZIKI SAUCE RECIPE



Tzatziki Sauce Recipe image

Creamy Greek Tztaziki Sauce recipe with cucumber, yogurt, and garlic. Add a tablespoon or two of fresh dill or mint, if you like. Do not skip draining the cucumbers or your yogurt dip will be too watery. And for best texture, cover and refrigerate anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours before serving. This versatile cucumber yogurt sauce can be used in many ways, be sure to read my post for all the ideas!

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

Categories     Dips and Appetizers

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 English cucumber, (partially peeled (striped) and sliced )
1 tsp kosher salt (divided)
4 to 5 garlic cloves,
1 tsp white vinegar
1 tbsp Early Harvest Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cups plain Greek yogurt
1/4 tsp ground white pepper
Warm pita bread for serving
Sliced vegetables for serving

Steps:

  • Use a box grater to manually grate the cucumbers or you can use a small food processor to finely chop the cucumbers as I do in this recipe. Toss the grated cucumbers with 1/2 tsp kosher salt. Spoon the grated cucumber into a cheese cloth or a double thickness napkin and squeeze dry. (There will be a lot of liquid).
  • In one large mixing bowl, place the garlic with remaining 1/2 tsp salt, white vinegar, and extra virgin olive oil. Mix to combine.
  • Add the grated cucumber to the bowl with the garlic mixture. Stir in the yogurt, and a pinch of white or black pepper, and the fresh herbs (if using. I did not use fresh herbs in the video). Stir to combine well.
  • Cover and refrigerate for a bit (anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple hours before serving). This will help thicken the sauce and give it the best texture, while allowing the flavors to meld.
  • When ready to serve, stir the tzatziki sauce to refresh and transfer to serving bowl, drizzle with more extra virgin olive oil, if you like. Serve with your favorite veggies, pita chips or wedges (be sure to read the post for more ideas on how to use this sauce)!

CREAMY MEDITERRANEAN SAUCE FOR PORK, CHICKEN, OR LAMB



Creamy Mediterranean Sauce for Pork, Chicken, or Lamb image

This is so easy and absolutely delicious and it is wonderful served over pork, chicken or lamb. It is a great way to clean out your pantry. It is a simple a very hearty sauce. A mix of tomatoes, olives, capers, onions, artichokes and mushrooms with a hint of cream make this a rich creamy sauce. For the main course ... try marinating the pork, chicken or lamb in just a 'bottled Greek salad dressing' all day, then prepare by either pan searing, broiling, baking or grilling; and then serve over a bed or orzo or rice and top with this sauce. Makes a wonderful dinner.

Categories     Sauces

Time 20m

Yield 4-8 cups, 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, not drained
1 (4 1/2 ounce) can sliced mushrooms
1 (4 1/2 ounce) can artichoke hearts, diced
1 (4 1/2 ounce) can black olives, cut in half
1 tablespoon capers (more or less to taste)
1 medium onion, cut in half and thin sliced
1/3 cup white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
salt (go light because the olives and capers are salty)
pepper
olive oil, to saute

Steps:

  • Base -- Add 2 teaspoons olive oil to your saute pan; if using non stick 1 teaspoon is fine. Heat to medium / medium high heat. Add in the onions and cook 2 minutes; then add in the capers, olives and mushrooms and cook another minute or two to combine all the flavors.
  • Sauce -- Add the white wine to deglaze the pan and scrape up any bits. Cook another minute to reduce the wine. Reduce the heat to medium and add in the tomatoes, artichoke hearts and cream, stir well to combine. Season with salt and pepper; go easy on the salt. Nothing more is needed.
  • Simmer -- Just simmer on medium / medium low and let the sauce reduce. It will take about 10 minutes to slightly thicken. Remember this is not a THICK sauce or gravy.
  • Serve -- Spoon the sauce over grilled pork, chicken or lamb. This is excellent over rice, pasta (I love orzo for this), couscous and even butter noodles. This is even excellent over a baked potato topped with feta cheese. Fresh basil makes a nice garnish if you want. ENJOY!
