Easy Tzatziki Sauce for Chicken Pitas

Casey Rooney
This easy homemade Tzatziki Sauce for Chicken Pitas is a MUST -- this creamy sauce is infused with fresh garlic, lemon juice, dill, and of course cucumbers! It pairs perfectly with flavorful chicken pitas--in fact, I can't have a chicken pita without (LOTS of) this sauce!

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 English cucumber, grated or finely chopped
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced the best garlic chopper!
  • 2 tbsp dried dill
  • 1/2 large lemon, juiced 1-2 tablespoons of lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt or sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Mix: In a small bowl, add all ingredients for the tzatziki sauce. Stir well to combine. Cover, and place in the fridge until you are ready to use drizzle it heavily onto these chicken pitas!

Notes

Note: Totally optional, but if you decide to grate the cucumber, place it in a paper towel and gently squeeze out any excess water. This will prevent your tzatziki sauce from getting watery and it will keep longer in the fridge. If you are consuming the sauce right away, no need to do this!
