Thoroughly wash the cucumber, then peel and chop coarsely. Place the chopped cucumber into a colander and press down with the back of a spoon to squeeze out the excess juice.
2
In a food processor, add the squeezed cucumber, Greek yogurt, peeled garlic clove, olive oil, lemon juice, chopped fresh dill and sea salt. Pulse until the mixture is well-combined but still has some texture.
3
Transfer the tzatziki sauce to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
4
Serve chilled with fresh vegetables or warm pita bread, atop grilled fish or chicken, or as an add-on to your favorite Mediterranean sandwiches.
5
Keep leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
