Notes

I like to use this seasoning for whenever I make chicken or chicken tacos, chicken fajitas,  or chicken burritos, but I am sure that you can use it in many other variations as well.
For example, you can season some vegetables with it, add a little olive oil, and grill them, and you got yourself a whole bunch of deliciousness.
You can also use it for bean dishes. As a busy mom, I place my chicken in a crock pot, season it, and let it cook for a few hours. Then, when it’s time for dinner, shred it and serve it with the taco helpings, or make burritos and bake them for 10 minutes.
I can see myself using this seasoning in many other dishes. The key here is to be creative and don’t be afraid of making mistakes.
If you want to experiment with your food, experiment on a small scale and see if you like it. You’ll be surprised how many things you can come up with!
