Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of Sriracha sauce, 1 teaspoon of lime juice, 1 teaspoon of honey, and salt.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add the 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt. This will serve as the creamy base for your dipping sauce.
- Next, measure out 2 tablespoons of Sriracha sauce and add it to the bowl with the Greek yogurt. This will give your sauce a spicy kick.
- Then, squeeze in 1 teaspoon of fresh lime juice. This will add a zesty flavor and help balance the heat from the Sriracha.
- Now, add 1 teaspoon of honey to the mixture. The honey will provide a touch of sweetness to complement the spiciness.
- Using a whisk or a fork, mix all the ingredients together until they are well combined and smooth. Make sure there are no lumps from the yogurt.
- Once the sauce is well mixed, taste it and add salt to your preference. Start with a pinch and adjust as needed.
- Transfer the dipping sauce to a serving bowl or container. If desired, you can garnish it with a sprinkle of Sriracha on top for an extra pop of color.
- Serve your Lighter Sriracha Dipping Sauce immediately with your favorite snacks, such as fresh vegetables, chicken wings, or spring rolls. Enjoy!
Tips
- • For the best flavor, use fresh lime juice instead of bottled for a brighter, zestier taste. • Adjust the Sriracha sauce quantity to control the heat level - start with less and add more gradually. • If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add a small splash of milk or water to the mixture. • For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt or silken tofu. • Chill the sauce for 15-30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. • Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. • Experiment with garnishes like chopped cilantro, green onions, or a sprinkle of chili flakes for extra visual appeal and flavor.
