I got this recipe from a magazine (don't know which kind) while waiting for a haircut. It's just like the name suggests. I think this is more flavorful than storebought seasoning. It also has less salt. Use it on chicken, ground beef, or taco meat. The original recipe needed some spice (I like spicy food), so I added chipotle and cayenne pepper. Yum! Ingredients:
4 teaspoons dried ancho chile powder (you can find this at the fresh market) |
1 tablespoon onion powder (optional) |
2 teaspoons garlic powder |
1 tablespoon ground cumin |
2 teaspoons paprika |
2 teaspoons oregano |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus a pinch |
1/8 teaspoon dried chipotle powder |
1 dash cayenne pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
2. Place in an airtight container or a spice jar, and label.
3. Use in place of regular taco seasoning.
4. (I typically add about 2 T for each pound of ground beef or chopped chicken).
