FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:  What should I use this Fajita Seasoning on? Any of your favorite fajitas recipes of course! Air Fryer Steak Fajitas, Chicken Fajitas (or Crock Pot Chicken Fajitas) or some classic Sheet Pan Beef Fajitas. Or go off the beaten path a bit and use it in Arroz Con Pollo or Chicken Tostadas or Tater Tot Enchilada Bake! Can I adjust the blend of spices? Certainly. For a smokier taste, they can use smoked paprika. The cayenne pepper is optional since I know some folks are sensitive to it. I think that is a huge benefit to making it yourself is that you can adjust the flavors to suit your preference. Not a huge fan of cumin? Just use less – etc. Is this spicy? While the cayenne pepper can be adjusted to bring more heat, I don’t feel like this is a super spicy blend of spices. It’s just the right amount of spice and flavor to create the perfect mixture to use on your fajitas. How long does Homemade Fajita Seasoning last? You can keep the seasoning in a tight sealed container for up to 6 months. Make sure to check the expiration date of the seasonings. Using fresh seasonings will help this homemade mixture last longer. INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE) chili powder  – some chili powder can have different heat levels.
