Blackening Seasoning for Fish or Chicken

This homemade blackening seasoning combines garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, multiple varieties of paprika, oregano, black pepper, basil, and cayenne pepper to create a deep, smoky, and mildly spicy blend. It is designed to enhance fish or chicken by adding a robust flavor profile when seared at high heat. The mix balances sweet and smoked paprikas with aromatic herbs and a touch of heat from cayenne, making it versatile for various proteins.
