Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, ensuring it's at room temperature for smooth mixing.
- Add honey to the yogurt, stirring gently to create a consistent, creamy base. Use a whisk or fork to blend thoroughly.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice directly into the yogurt and honey mixture, carefully avoiding any seeds falling into the sauce.
- Sprinkle chili powder into the sauce, whisking continuously to distribute the spice evenly throughout the mixture.
- Add a pinch of salt to taste, starting with a small amount and adjusting gradually to achieve the desired flavor balance.
- Stir all ingredients until the sauce is smooth and well-combined, with a uniform color and texture.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld and sauce to chill.
- Before serving, give the sauce a quick stir and transfer to a small serving bowl.
- Serve chilled alongside roasted or baked sweet potato wedges or chips for dipping.
Tips
- Use room temperature Greek yogurt for the smoothest, most velvety texture.
- Choose fresh, high-quality honey for the best natural sweetness.
- Squeeze lime juice directly from a fresh lime for the brightest, most vibrant flavor.
- Adjust chili powder to your personal spice preference - start small and add more if desired.
- Let the sauce chill for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and intensify.
- For an extra flavor boost, consider adding a tiny pinch of ground cumin or smoked paprika.
- If the sauce is too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water or additional lime juice.
- Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
