Chili Powder comes in both dark and regular. Either one can be used here, it is a matter of personal preference.Kosher Salt is always my go to when it comes to cooking. If you use table salt, make sure to cut the amount by half to start.Paprika also comes in different types. We used regular, but if you like smoked paprika, go for it.Oregano is great in this recipe, and if you grow your own, dry it for the perfect fresh taste.Onion Powder is the perfect addition and brings that onion flavor while skipping over the texture of actual onions for my picky eaters.Garlic Powder is a must here, just make sure to grab the powder and not garlic salt.

This recipe isn’t meant to be the final word on how to make fajita seasoning. This recipe is meant to replace what you would find in the grocery store. This is a great way for those who like to cook from scratch to use other recipes they find online. Additionally, making your own seasoning mixes allows you to control the ingredients for particular dietary restrictions like low sodium diets.
