Having this seasoning mix on hand makes dinner easy breezy! (lemon squeezy??) Make a double batch and you can keep it for months in a cool, dry spot. Use it on vegetables, fish or meat alike, these flavours go so well together and make dinner quick and simple.
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste)
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
How easy is this? just toss it all into a bowl and thoroughly mix. Do yourself a favour and make lots.
Just looking at this, you can tell it’s tasty, right??
This works with anything your imagination can come up with …. salad dressing or vegetable dip or seafood bake …. you let me know if you come up with more!
For fajitas:
- protein (or not to make it vegetarian)
- onions
- peppers
To make fajitas, simply generously sprinkle slivered chicken (or any meat, seafood of your choice) and toss in fry pan until just cooked through.
Cook sliced peppers and onions separately so they don’t overcook.
Serve with:
- lime crema (sounds fancy, but it’s just a squeeze of lime juice with sour cream and a bit of salt)
- salsa
- avocado
- lime wedges
- chopped cilantro
- toasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
- tortillas
You can so easily turn this into what is crazy popular right now, power bowls! Just serve with cooked quinoa or grain of your choice.
Turn it into a sheet pan dinner, also featured everywhere right now, just generously sprinkle everything with the seasoning and toss it into a hot oven (?400?).
Yes, you are welcome, you didn’t know dinner could be so quick, easy, healthy and delicious, did you???
