Servings: 15 servings (about 5 Tablespoons)
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon chili powder
- 1 Tablespoon smoked paprika

- 1 Tablespoon salt
Instructions
- Mix together all ingredients in a small bowl and stir until fully combined.

Notes
Be sure to grab quality spices for your seasoning. This ensures optimum flavor. Cheaper seasonings often lack in flavor and quality, making the seasoning taste weak and lacking.
You can use normal paprika in place of smoked paprika, but smoked paprika does add an extra layer of flavor that is really good in fajitas.
Use a finer grain salt in this recipe. Coarse salt may create uneven seasoning in your final dish. Squeeze some fresh lime over your fajitas for an extra burst of fresh flavor. Citrus goes really well with these flavors.
