Cajun dry rub

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 tablespoon Cracked Black Peppercorns
1 tablespoon Salt
2 teaspoons Crushed Fennel Seeds
1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
1 teaspoon Sweet Or Hot Paprika
1 teaspoon Dry Mustard
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
½ teaspoon Ground Red Pepper
1 teaspoon Ground Sage

Directions

This spice mix, best known as "blackening spice," can be rubbed generously on chicken, fatty fish, steaks, or vegetables before pan broiling, grillikng, or sauteing. It will transform into a tangy, deeply carmelized crust as the food cooks. Expect the spices to smoke some during cooking.

Stir all ingredients together in a small bowl. This rub will stay potent, covered and kept in a cool, dark, dry place for up to 6 weeks.
