ADD FLAVOR TO YOUR CHICKEN WITH A SEASONING BLEND

Spice up the flavor of your chicken recipes with this amazing Chicken Seasoning Blend and say bye-bye to bland chicken for forever and ever! Featuring a mix of smoky and sweet spices, with a dash of dried herbs, this chicken seasoning adds loads of flavor with very little work.

This particular blend is my absolute go-to, and it’s good on everything, not just chicken. From pork to fish, and even potatoes, it will kick up the flavors by several notches no matter what you use it on.
