Instructions

Combine Spices: In a bowl or spice jar, mix together the smoked paprika, kosher salt, garlic powder, black pepper, white pepper, onion powder, dried oregano, cayenne pepper, and dried thyme until thoroughly blended.

Notes

Smoked paprika adds a rich, smoky depth, but regular paprika can be used if preferred.
