This seasoning mix is a classic blend of smoky, spicy, and savory flavors. It can be stored in a jar for months and used in tacos, burritos, soups, casseroles, or even sprinkled over roasted potatoes. It’s one of those kitchen staples that makes cooking quick and flavorful.
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon smoked paprika (or sweet paprika)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
Place all the spices into a small mixing bowl.
Stir until all spices are fully combined and evenly distributed.
Transfer the seasoning to an airtight jar or spice container. Label and store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
Use 2–3 tablespoons of seasoning per pound of meat, adjusting to taste. Add 2/3 cup of water with the seasoning when cooking ground beef for tacos.
