Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Tzatziki
In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well until smooth. Adjust seasoning with black pepper and add chopped dill. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Cook the Shishito Peppers
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shishito peppers and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are blistered and tender.
Prepare the Onion
While the peppers are cooking, thinly slice the red onion. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced onion with the remaining olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
Toast the Almonds
In a small pan, toast the sliced almonds over low heat until they are golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
