Marissa's MediterraneanA creamy, protein-packed snack featuring tangy labneh topped with a crunchy, nutty dukkah spice blend. Perfect for a quick afternoon pick-me-up!
Finely chop the fresh parsley and zest one small lemon.
Use a microplane for the lemon zest to get that bright citrus aroma without the bitter pith.
Spread the labneh onto a shallow plate or bowl using the back of a spoon to create 'swirls' and 'wells' for the oil to sit in.
The deeper the swirls, the more delicious oil and spice they can hold!
Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil generously over the labneh, ensuring it fills the swirls.
Sprinkle the dukkah spice blend and fresh parsley over the top. Finish with the lemon zest for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately with fresh cucumber slices and warm pita bread for dipping.
The key to a perfect labneh dip is high-quality extra virgin olive oil. For the best flavor, let the dip sit for 10 minutes before serving to let the dukkah spices infuse into the oil. If you don't have dukkah, a mix of toasted sesame seeds and cumin works in a pinch!
