Homemade Blackened Seasoning
Description
The Homemade Blackened Seasoning recipe combines smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and chipotle pepper for a smoky, spicy foundation, complemented by garlic and onion powder for savory depth. Ground black pepper and kosher salt provide seasoning balance, while dried basil, oregano, and thyme introduce herbal notes. Mixing or pulsing these spices together creates a versatile, ready-to-use rub that can enhance grilled or pan-seared proteins by imparting a rich, dark crust. Proper storage in an airtight container preserves its potency for up to a year, making it a handy seasoning blend for repeated use over time.
