Ingredients
  

1 cup Greek yogurt

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves, finely chopped

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

1 teaspoon lime zest (from about 1 lime)

1 clove garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: 1 jalapeño, finely diced (for a spicy kick)

Instructions
 

In a medium mixing bowl, begin by adding the Greek yogurt and mayonnaise. Use a whisk or spatula to mix them together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

    Next, gently fold in the finely chopped cilantro, freshly squeezed lime juice, lime zest, minced garlic, and ground cumin. Stir until every ingredient is well combined, creating a vibrant green mixture.

      If you prefer some spice in your dip, now is the time to incorporate the finely diced jalapeño. Mix it in thoroughly for an extra kick of heat.

        Taste your dip and season with salt and pepper according to your preference. For a brighter flavor, feel free to adjust the lime juice or add more cilantro.

          Once seasoned, spoon the dip into a serving bowl. Cover it with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes. This resting period allows the flavors to marry beautifully.

            Just before serving, give the dip a good stir to ensure it's well mixed. To enhance its presentation, garnish with a few extra cilantro leaves and a light sprinkle of lime zest on top.
