Hey guys, Jami Elise here………bringing you your new favorite chili seasoning mix recipe. Ok guys, you can go ahead and throw out those packets of store bought chili seasoning because you will never go back after trying this.
I began looking for a new way to make chili because I just don’t LOVE the premade seasoning mixes that you buy from the grocery stores. I knew there had to be a better way to get the full flavor that chili has the potential to have. So I went on a search….
I started trying to add different spices together and then I added different amounts of those spices. Finally, I came up with, what I think is the perfect combination of those seasonings……….. It is a super simple, super yummy, chili seasoning mix.
First thing you are going to do is grab a clean container (I like to use a mason jar because you get a true airtight seal.) and gather all of your spices. You will need, Paprika, Cumin, Garlic powder, Onion Powder, Salt, Chili Powder, Parsley, and Pepper.
Next you are going to start mixing in all of the spices. You are going to add 5 Tablespoons of Chili Powder, 5 Teaspoons of Cumin, 2 Teaspoons of Granulated Garlic(or garlic powder), 3 Teaspoons of Onion Powder, 4 Teaspoons of Salt, 1 Teaspoon of Black Pepper. (You can add more if you would like to, I just stick to the 1 Teaspoon.), 2 Teaspoons of paprika, and last but not least, 2 Tablespoons of Parsley.
Now, I know it looks pretty layered on top of each other like sand art. But…… you have to get past that. The last step is to SHAKE IT…….Shake it like a Polaroid Picture (thanks outcast).
When you make your chili, you are going to use 2-3 tablespoons of the seasoning mix.
Using a good seasoning mix is the best way to get a chili that is full of flavor (As chili should be). This mix should be plenty to make all of your winter pots of chili (Unless you just eat a ton of chili, then you need to double this recipe.) This is KID approved, Husband approved, and friends/family approved chili. Try out this recipe and let me know what you guys think.
