On Wednesday I shared my homemade Taco Meat seasoning. Today, I want to share my homemade Fajita seasoning. I use this one when we eat chicken/turkey tortillas. If I’m out, I just use my taco meat seasoning, but this one adds a nice flavour to chicken. 🙂
Fajita Meat Seasoning
3 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp salt
1 Tbsp paprika
1 Tbsp sugar
2 1/2 tsp chicken powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp cumin
Mix all together. This equals 3 store-bought packages. Simply sprinkle some to taste on top of your cooked chicken chunks. Add a little bit of water, and simmer until most of the liquid has cooked away. You’ll be left with a slightly ‘saucey’ fajita meat!
That looks great, thanks for sharing! I need to make fajitas more often—they just aren’t on my radar, and they should be!
I know! I don’t do them often either, but they’re so yummy when I do! 🙂
What exactly is chicken powder? Could I use poultry seasoning? Same thing?
It’s chicken bouillion (like XOX brand). It’s not the same as poultry seasoning, but some poultry seasoning would probably work if you don’t have chicken bouillion powder. 🙂
Thanks so much! I am always looking for a healthy alternative to pre-packaged items!
