    Is fajita seasoning gluten free?

    Not all fajita seasoning blends are gluten free unless the package says “Gluten Free”. The same goes for taco seasoning and several other types of spice blends. It is usually because some of the ingredients or the blend itself were made in a facility that also produces products that contain gluten.

    Also, paprika (a main ingredient in fajita seasoning) usually contains gluten unless you buy a gluten free brand.

    What ingredients are in fajita seasoning?

    • Chili powder
    • Garlic powder
    • Onion powder
    • Paprika – I used gluten free
    • Oregano
    • Light brown sugar – just a little bit for a hint of sweetness
    • Kosher salt + Black pepper

    How to make homemade fajita seasoning that is gluten free

    1. Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix well to combine.
    2. Use right away or store in a spice jar in your spice cabinet for up to 6 months!

    How long do homemade seasonings last?

    Most homemade seasoning like this fajita seasoning will last for up to 6 months if stored in a jar with a lid in a cool, dry place.

    How to store your seasoning

    I have a spice drawer as well as a spice cabinet where I store all of my spices and seasonings. The best way to store them is in a spice jar with a tight fitting lid which helps them stay fresher longer. Always make sure to keep them in a cool, dry place for the best results.

    Ways to use fajita seasoning

    You can use this seasoning blend on so many things to enhance the flavor of dishes like chicken, salmon, pork tenderloin or even crispy chickpeas. Of course using fajita seasoning for vegetarian fajitas or air fryer chicken fajitas is the most common way to use it.
