This pantry-staple blend combines paprika, garlic, and cayenne for a smoky, peppery kick with a savory backbone. It comes together in minutes with dried spices already on hand, making it ready to sprinkle on chicken, shrimp, or vegetables. Store it in a sealed jar to keep future meals a shake away from bold Louisiana-style flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup paprika
  • 3 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 3 tablespoons onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
  • 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon white pepper
  • 3 tablespoons fine sea salt

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, and dried thyme.

  2. Add the cayenne pepper, black pepper, white pepper, and sea salt to the bowl.

  3. Whisk all the spices together until evenly combined and no clumps remain, breaking up any pockets of paprika or salt with the back of a spoon.

  4. Transfer the blend to an airtight jar or container, seal tightly, and store in a cool, dark pantry for up to 6 months.
