Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 1 tablespoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried Thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a bowl and stir well to combine.
  • Store in a spice jar at room temperature for up to 1 year.

Notes

  • You can easily double, triple or quadruple the ingredients to make more seasoning at one time if you think that you will be using it often.  The amount in this recipe is a good starter to see what you like. It fills a small spice jar.
  • You can also easily adjust the ratios to your personal preference. If you would like a milder seasoning, use less cayenne. If you like it really spicy, add more cayenne.
