I don't think I ever officially posted this so here it is- my take on a classic homemade Fajita Seasoning. I owe credit to Ernest and bbqoaf for their help. I used their recipes, combined a little from each, then tasted and added more of this, more of that, repeat repeat, until I arrived at what I was looking for.
Use good spices, not the bargain bin cheap ones, please.
Huskee's Classic Fajita Seasoning
Makes just under 1/2 cup
Also you may notice there's no salt- make sure to dry brine! (My wife didn't know it was saltless when I first made it, so she used this on some chicken and sent it with me to work. Lol )
