Ingredients
All spices and seasonings in this blend are dried. If you only have fresh on hand, I would recommend either drying them to be used in this seasoning blend, or grabbing the dried version the next time you are at the store. Fresh spices do not work here.
- Salt
- Paprika
- Onion powder
- Dried thyme
- Black pepper
- Garlic powder
One of the best parts about this recipe is that these ingredients are all of these are commonly found spices and there shouldn’t be anything you have to hunt down. You may even have every single one already in your spice cabinet!
Recipe Tips
- Key Ingredients! Each spice is important to give the rotisserie chicken its signature flavor, but the paprika is extra important because the paprika is what gives the chicken its signature redish color and helps it brown to perfection.
- Mix to combine– There is no special magic here. To make this, you just dump it all together and mix it up. To make it even easier, you can use a mason jar or other container and dump, then shake. Then all you get messy is a couple of measuring spoons!
- Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place. When stored like this the Rotisserie Chicken Seasoning should stay fresh for up to a year. Some also recommend putting it in the freezer to further extend the life but I have never found that necessary. I run out long before it would ever go bad.
- Double, triple, or more! This recipe can easily be scaled up to make a big batch of Rotisserie Chicken Seasoning. This will allow you to keep it on hand for longer periods of time, especially when you start throwing it in everything as your “secret ingredient” like I do!
