# How to Make It:

04 - Distribute sea salt, garlic powder, and smoked paprika evenly over the pita triangles for optimal flavor.
05 - Bake for 10–12 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp. Remove and allow to cool completely.
06 - In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, olive oil, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir until mixture is uniform.
07 - Refrigerate finished tzatziki for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to develop.
08 - Present pita chips alongside chilled tzatziki. Pair with optional crudités if desired.
