Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 (15 oz) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 cups diced cucumber
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Whisk together the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, dill, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until smooth.
  2. Fold in the diced cucumber and drained chickpeas until everything is evenly coated.
  3. Transfer to a serving bowl, top with a few dill fronds and a drizzle of olive oil, and serve right away or after chilling briefly.

Notes

If you can spare 30 minutes, let the salad chill before serving; it deepens the garlic and dill flavor. Drain the chickpeas thoroughly and avoid stirring too aggressively, or they can break down and make the salad pasty.
