Make your own Fajita Seasoning Mix using this easy recipe. This is a fairly mild mix, so if you like your Tex Mex food hot and spicy, add more chili powder, cayenne pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.
You could also increase the amount of onion and garlic powder used. You can also double or triple this recipe if you use it a lot.
When using this mix and you're rubbing it on raw meat, poultry or seafood, always remove some from the storage jar and place it in a small bowl. That way, as you take some seasoning mix out and rub it on the raw meat, you won't contaminate the entire batch.
If you are simply going to rub the mixture on steak, chicken, pork, or seafood before grilling it, omit the cornstarch.
Ingredients:
• 3 Tbsp. cornstarch
• 2 Tbsp. chili powder
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 Tbsp. paprika
• 1 Tbsp. sugar
• 2-1/2 tsp. crushed chicken bouillon cube
• 1-1/2 tsp. onion powder
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/2 tsp. cumin
Preparation:
Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl.
Pour into small glass or plastic container, seal tightly and store in a cool, dry place.
Makes the equivalent of 3 packets of commercial or purchased Fajita Seasoning Mix.
