Homemade Fajita Seasoning Mix

Makes 1.70 oz or 48grams

Materials

1 teaspoon garlic powder
1.5 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
1.5 teaspoons ground cumin (if using it for chicken or shrimp use just 1 tsp)
½ teaspoon ground coriander seed
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 Tablespoon red pepper flakes adjust amount to desired heat level
1 Tablespoon sweet paprika
1.5 Tablespoons dried cilantro or dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried oregano Mexican oregano if possible

Instructions

Measure the spices, use a fork to stir until all of the ingredients are well combined. You can also just add everything into a small jar and shake until well combined. Store in a cool, dark place for up to a couple of weeks for optimal freshness and taste.

Notes

If you’d like a non-spicy mix omit the pepper flakes and add a total of 2 Tablespoons of sweet paprika. Instead of red pepper flakes you can also use red chili powder or ground chipotle pepper for a smoky tasting fajita mix. The use of powdered garlic and onion is so that it adheres to your ingredients better than granulated garlic and onion.
