Description
This Cucumber Radish Salad with Creamy Chive Dressing is a fresh, crisp, and refreshing side dish made with crunchy cucumbers, peppery radishes, and a tangy creamy lemon-chive dressing. It comes together in minutes and pairs perfectly with grilled meats, sandwiches, or light lunches.
Ingredients
6 mini cucumbers, sliced
2 bunches radishes, sliced
1/4 cup minced chives
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Add the sliced cucumbers, sliced radishes, and minced chives to a large salad bowl.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss well until evenly coated.
- Serve immediately for the freshest flavor and crunchiest texture.
Notes
Add thinly sliced red onions for extra crunch and sharpness.
Fresh dill can be added along with the chives for more herb flavor.
Plain Greek yogurt can replace sour cream for a lighter dressing.
Cherry tomatoes add extra color and sweetness.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Stir before serving again since cucumbers may release water over time.
