Daddy's fajitas or tacos seasoning mix

My hubby had a turn to cook gluten free and decided to make fajitas...with chicken...a family favourite...the dilemma ???  Which taco seasoning mixes had  gluten in them ???   We knew the brown rice wraps  were amazing...WAY better than whole wheat  and they thawed on the counter in less than 10 minutes...we knew the chicken was safe..thighs were the most juicy...remove the skin and chop off the meat...red peppers and onions were good too...this is now our family's FAVOURITE seasoning (works for tacos too) and  is made by combining these ingredients..


Daddy's fajitas seasoning  mix:
3 T. all purpose Gluten Free Flour
2 T. chili powder
1 T. salt
1 T. paprika
1 T. sugar

1/2  tsp. turmeric
2 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp. crushed/whole red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp. cumin

mix all ingredients together and save in a resealable bag or container.
makes three servings of fajitas or tacos


To use:
Add 4T of mix (equivalent to the amount that would be in a store bought packet) and a cup of water to browned meat and cook at a simmer until it thickens :)
If stored in a cool dry place, mix will last for about 1 year
