Homemade Lemon Pepper Seasoning

Homemade Lemon Pepper Seasoning is a pantry staple that has so many uses. Perfect for perking up family meals, try this seasoning on seafood like tilapia or shrimp, add a burst of flavor to your chicken, turkey, pork, or beef dishes. Or sprinkle this over your favorite potato, pasta, or rice dishes. Use the lemon pepper seasoning as a basis for an easy salad dressing or a simple marinade. The classic combo of lemon and pepper is the perfect blend of fresh, zesty with a bit of heat and a lot of flavor.

Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup dried lemon peel - see note 1
  • ¼ cup black pepper see note 2, cracked
  • 2 tablespoons salt - see note 3
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar see note 4, optional

Instructions

  1. Mix the dried lemon peel, black pepper, salt, onion powder, and garlic powder.
  2. Store the prepared lemon pepper seasoning in an airtight container.

Notes

  • The recipe makes about ¾ cups of seasoning blend. The nutritional information is per teaspoon and does include the sugar.
  • You can buy dried lemon peel online or make your own with this easy recipe for drying lemon peel.
  • If you want to make your lemon pepper mix more lemony and less peppery, you can half the black pepper.
  • You can leave the salt out of this mix and then season any dish separately with salt.
  • The sugar is optional; I leave it out, but adding it makes the blend taste more like storebought seasonings.
