Fajita seasoning, though devised for flavoring meats in the preparation of traditional Fajitas, is a versatile mix that can enhance a wide range of dishes. Its blend of spices such as chili powder, cumin, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper and more, lends a savory and mildly spicy accent to any dish it's used in. Commonly, where people go wrong with fajita seasoning is by using it in excess, which can make the dish too spicy or salty. To get the most out of this ingredient, start with a lighter hand and adjust to taste. A little known trick is to toss it with your favorite veggies and pan roast them for an instant flavor upgrade. Additionally, fajita seasoning can be combined with oil to make a quick marinade for proteins beyond just meats - think tofu or tempeh.
