Cool, creamy, and bright with citrus, this sauce is the finishing touch that pulls a Mediterranean plate together. Thick Greek yogurt gets a lift from lemon juice and zest, fresh dill, and a hint of garlic and oregano. Whisk it in minutes and let it chill so the flavours meld, then spoon it generously over lamb meatballs, grilled chicken, or warm pita as a dip.
