Homemade Taco Seasoning
I use taco seasoning on fish, chicken, and beef, use it on vegetables and whole grains; use it in your favorite chili recipe. Bump the taco seasoning in a sealed package, make it fresh and use it often!
Ingredients
Yield: about 2/3 cup
4 tablespoons of chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons paprika
2 tablespoons ground cumin
3 teaspoons of sea salt
4 teaspoons freshly ground pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, oregano, paprika, ground cumin, sea salt, and black pepper. Store in an air-tight container at room temperature. Stored in an airtight container, this spice blend will keep for up to a year. When making chili or tacos using one pound of ground beef, start with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the seasoning blend and adjust according to your taste.
