A smoky chili, onion and cumin spice mix with hickory salt. Sprinkle it on chicken, pork, beef or potatoes, or rub it on with a little oil.
Ingredients
- ½ cup chili powder
- ¼ cup hickory flavored salt
- 3 tablespoons onion powder
- 2 tablespoons cumin
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon garlic
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon dry mustard
- ½ teaspoon lemon zest
Equipment
- zip-top bags
- airtight jar
Directions
- Put all the ingredients in a zip-top bag, close it, and shake until the color is uniform.
- Pour into a clean spice jar or small bottle with a tight-fitting lid.
- To use, sprinkle over chicken, pork, beef, or potatoes right before cooking, or rub it on with a little oil. For larger cuts, season about 30 minutes ahead.
- Keep airtight in a cool, dry cupboard away from heat and sunlight; use within 6 months.
Notes
Use garlic powder and dried lemon zest; fresh zest would add moisture to a stored dry mix.
