Fajita Blend
Description
This homemade Fajita Blend is the secret to restaurant-quality flavor without the preservatives. Combining the earthy warmth of cumin and oregano with the robust heat of chili powder, this rub creates a deeply savory crust on meats and vegetables. It is incredibly versatile, perfect for tossing with sliced steak, chicken, or shrimp before grilling or pan-searing. The garlic salt adds a savory punch that ties all the flavors together.
