Homemade Taco Seasoning Blend Recipe


  • Author: Imili Johnson
  • Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, adjust for spice level)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

Instructions

Step 1: Measure the Ingredients
  1. Gather the Spices: In a small bowl or jar, measure out all the spices—chili powder, cumin, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, red pepper flakes, and salt.
Step 2: Mix the Seasoning
  1. Combine the Spices: Whisk or stir the spices together until they are evenly mixed. Make sure all the ingredients are well-incorporated so that each spoonful will have the same flavor balance.
Step 3: Store or Use Immediately
  1. Use Immediately or Store: If you’re using the taco seasoning right away, add it directly to your meat as it cooks (see cooking notes for instructions on how to use). If not, transfer the blend into an airtight container or small spice jar for future use. This seasoning can be stored in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
