Instructions

Keep Screen Awake

Whisk all of the ingredients thoroughly together in a medium bowl.
Transfer to an empty spice jar or airtight container. Store in a cool, dark place (like the pantry) for 1-2 years. Use as a dry rub for chicken, steak, pork, seafood, to season vegetables, rice, beans, eggs, etc.

Notes

Protein rub: The spice blend creates a quick and flavorful rub for any protein. Drizzle your chicken thighs, steak, pork, shrimp or fish with olive oil then rub with Jerk Seasoning and let rest for 20-30 minutes at room temperate. Finish off your protein with a nice squeeze of lime after cooking. Use 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons as a dry rub for 1 pound of protein.
Marinade: Make a quick wet rub marinade by whisking together 2 tablespoons Jerk Seasoning, 2 tablespoons olive oil, zest and juice of one lime and 1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce. Use for 1 to 1 1/2 pounds of protein.
