Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion, celery, and green bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 6–7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the smoked paprika, thyme, oregano, black pepper, cayenne, and salt, then remove the skillet from the heat and let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.
