Citrus Free Gluten Free Cajun Seasoning
Homemade spice blends are one of those kitchen wins that feel almost too easy once you try them. This smoky, bold Cajun seasoning layers smoked and sweet paprika with garlic, onion, oregano, thyme, and a trio of peppers for serious depth and heat. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of citrus, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden citrus-derived additives that sometimes sneak into commercial spice mixes. You just stir everything together, seal it in a jar, and you've got a pantry staple that keeps for up to six months. Use it to season chicken, shrimp, roasted vegetables, or anything else that could use a little Louisiana-inspired fire. It's the kind of recipe that makes you wonder why you ever bought the pre-made stuff in the first place.
