Storage
Store leftover seasoning in an airtight container in the pantry. It's best to store away from sunlight in a cool, dry place. The length of time depends on the expiration dates on your individual spices.
Cooking Tips
- Don't skip the cornstarch. It creates a really nice seasoned sauce on the fajitas, and also prevents any extra seasoning from caking together in storage.
- Check the expiration dates on your spices before using them. If they are past the expiration date, the flavor will not be as strong and may be off. You want to use fresh ingredients.
- From this recipe, you can use about 1-2 tablespoons of fajita seasoning per pound of meat.
