Notes
- Cayenne pepper is the primary source of heat in fajita seasoning. For a milder blend, reduce the amount or omit it entirely.
- Using smoked paprika gives the spice mix a deeper flavor than regular paprika.
- Use fresh spices. Dried herbs have the highest potency when less than one year old.
- This mixture is excellent with beef, chicken, or shrimp fajitas.
