Soy Free Herb Roasting Rub
Store-bought spice blends and seasoning packets are notorious for sneaking in fillers, anti-caking agents, and soy-derived additives that have no business being on your roast chicken. This homemade blend puts you back in control with nothing but pure, aromatic herbs and spices you can actually pronounce. Rosemary, thyme, oregano, and parsley form a fragrant backbone, while turmeric, ginger, and a hint of lemon zest add warmth and brightness that make whatever you're cooking taste genuinely special. A touch of cayenne is optional, but it gives the rub a subtle kick that takes it from good to great. Just press it firmly onto chicken, fish, pork, or vegetables before roasting or grilling and let the heat do the rest. It comes together in minutes and keeps in an airtight jar for up to three months, so you can batch it once and reach for it all season long.
