Tzatziki Cucumber Salad is a creamy and refreshing Mediterranean-style salad made with crisp cucumbers, thick Greek yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, and fresh herbs.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large English cucumbers, diced
  • 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt (full-fat preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Wash the cucumbers, slice them in half lengthwise, remove seeds if watery, and dice them.
  2. Lightly salt the cucumbers and place them in a colander for 10–15 minutes to release excess moisture.
  3. Pat or gently squeeze the cucumbers dry using a clean towel.
  4. In a large bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  5. Stir in fresh dill, parsley, and olive oil if using.
  6. Add the drained cucumbers and gently fold to combine.
