Cajun Blackening

This paprika-based Cajun blackening seasoning is designed for high-heat cooking. California paprika forms the base, helping create a dark crust when seared in a hot skillet. Garlic, onion, mustard powder, and herbs add depth, while chiles and cayenne bring medium-low heat. Use it for blackened chicken, catfish, steak, burgers, or to season fries and vegetables.
