I love using this easy Mediterranean herb and spice mix on almost anything! It is really simple to whip up a batch and it adds a tremendous flavour to whatever you use it on.
Simply mix dried thyme, dried oregano, granulated garlic, black pepper, roaster ground coriander and cumin, hot or sweet smoked Spanish paprika and salt.
I like using my easy Mediterranean herb and spice mix on chicken thighs, on pork belly, on fresh tuna just before grilling or on grilled vegetables. You can also use it as a general seasoning for soups and stews.
If I want a finer textured rub I simply run the whole mixture through my spice grinder which works really well when I want the dried herbs broken down a bit more for more delicate fish fillets or pork fillet.
