Ingredients
  

For the Spice Blend
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika Adds a rich, smoky flavor; substitute with sweet paprika for a milder taste.
  • 1 tablespoon seasoning salt Provides a salty base and enhances overall flavor; regular salt can be used but adjust to taste.
  • 1.5 teaspoons onion powder Adds depth and sweetness; use fresh onions if desired, but be mindful of moisture content.
  • 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder Offers savory notes; omit for garlic allergies or replace with garlic salt, adjusting the total salt in the mix.
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper Contributes heat and spice; use less for a milder blend or substitute with crushed red pepper flakes for the same kick.
