The BEST Chicken Seasoning Blend

My tried and true Chicken Seasoning Blend prepared with everyday pantry spices creates the most delicious chicken dishes. It’s the perfect mix that works well with chicken breasts, chicken thighs, and whole chicken. 

ADD FLAVOR TO YOUR CHICKEN WITH A SEASONING BLEND

Spice up the flavor of your chicken recipes with this amazing Chicken Seasoning Blend and say bye-bye to bland chicken for forever and ever! Featuring a mix of smoky and sweet spices, with a dash of dried herbs, this chicken seasoning adds loads of flavor with very little work.

If you are someone that cooks meats regularly, I suggest making a big batch and store this seasoning mix in your pantry for all future use.

This particular blend is my absolute go-to, and it’s good on everything, not just chicken. From pork to fish, and even potatoes, it will kick up the flavors by several notches no matter what you use it on.

INGREDIENTS

Rub the spice blend all over the chicken breasts – or any other cut of chicken or meat – and expect super flavorful results. Whether you are baking, grilling, or pressure cooking chicken, this dry rub adds a delicious taste each and every time.

WHAT TOOLS DO I NEED TO MAKE A CHICKEN SEASONING BLEND?

You will need:

• measuring spoons,
• mixing bowls, and
• spice jars to store the seasoning mix.

A good seasoning blend for chicken breasts – or pork and salmon – is essential to have in your pantry, and this recipe has everything you will need. It is a great mix of zesty and savory, and none of these spices are hard to find. Most of them are probably sitting in your pantry.

The amounts listed in the recipe makes enough seasoning for 6 to 8 chicken breasts, but that all depends on how much you like to season your meats.
