Mike’s Fajita Rub

My version of a classic rub for fajitas, ribs, baja-style fish.

Ingredients: 1 tbs. chimayo chili powder 1 tbs. white pepper 1 tbs. garlic powder (not salt) 1-1/2 tsp. black pepper 1 tbs. cumin, ground from toasted seed 1-1/2 tsp. salt 1 tbs. mild paprika 1 tsp. chipotle* powder 1 tbs. dried mexican oregano leaf

Preparation:

Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl. Blend well. Can be stored in an airtight container in your spice cabinet for up to a year. This rub is also excellent on grilled chicken or fish.

*Chipotle powder is very hot. If you want more heat, add 1 tbs. instead. Makes about 1/4 cup.
