Pescatarian Gluten Free Cajun Seasoning
Bold, smoky, and layered with heat, this homemade Cajun seasoning blend is the kind of pantry staple that quietly transforms everything it touches. A double hit of smoked and sweet paprika builds a rich, complex base, while garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and thyme add that classic Southern depth. Cayenne and white pepper bring the heat from two different angles, so every pinch has a little kick that lingers in the best way. For anyone cooking seafood regularly, having a reliable, from-scratch blend like this on hand means you can season shrimp, fish, or scallops with total confidence — no mystery fillers, no hidden gluten from store-bought packets. It comes together in minutes with a quick stir, and stored in an airtight jar it stays fresh for up to six months. Dust it over grilled salmon, toss it with prawns before a quick sear, or use it as a dry rub on your favorite white fish — the possibilities are genuinely endless.
