Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoon paprika
  • 2 tablespoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoon garlic powder
  • ½ tablespoon lemon pepper
  • ½ tablespoon black pepper
  • ½ tablespoon ground cumin
  • ½ tablespoon dried parsley
  • ½ tablespoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional if you want a hotter seasoning)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. First, rub the oregano and parsley between the palms of your hands until it is nearly a powder.
  2. Then put all of the ingredients in a small mixing bowl and stir until the ingredients are equally dispersed.

Notes

  • Use 1 tablespoon of seasoning per 1 pound of meat. You can use more or less depending on how you like your food seasoned.
  • Seasoning will keep for 3 months in a tightly sealed container.
  • The recipe intentionally doesn't include salt which allows you to salt your dishes exactly to your preferences. When you are salting your dish we recommend adding ½ tsp. of salt at time then tasting it. Continue adding ½ tsp. at a time and tasting until the flavor pops and the level of saltiness is just right for you.
