Method
 

  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients. You’ll need ground sage, dried thyme, dried marjoram, dried mint, paprika, ground black pepper, and optionally, cloves. Having everything ready will make the process smoother.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground sage, dried thyme, dried marjoram, dried mint, paprika, ground black pepper, and if you’re using them, the cloves. Make sure to measure each ingredient accurately for the best flavor.
  3. Using a whisk or a fork, thoroughly mix all the herbs together. You want to ensure that they’re evenly distributed, so every pinch of your Homemade Simple Chicken Seasoning has the same delightful flavor.
  4. Once mixed, give the blend a little taste. This is your chance to adjust any of the spices to your liking. If it feels like it needs more heat, add a bit more black pepper or paprika.
  5. Transfer your seasoning blend into an airtight container. A glass jar works perfectly, and it allows you to see the beautiful colors of the herbs.
  6. Label your jar with the name of the seasoning and the date you made it. This way, you can keep track of its freshness.
  7. Store the jar in a cool, dark place. This will help preserve the flavors and extend the shelf life of your Homemade Simple Chicken Seasoning.
  8. Whenever you’re ready to use your seasoning, simply sprinkle it over your chicken before cooking. It’s perfect for marinades or rubs, ensuring your chicken bursts with flavor!
  9. Enjoy your deliciously seasoned chicken! Whether roasting, grilling, or frying, this blend will make every bite memorable.
