Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons coarse ground black peppers
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- Dry the lemon zest. (If you plan to store this rub, you'll need to dry the lemon zest first. You'll also need 2 Tablespoons of lemon zest if you are drying it, as opposed to only 1 Tablespoon if you plan on using this seasoning right away.) Spread the zest on a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Place it in an oven preheated to 180 degrees F. Crack the oven door and cook for 30 minutes.
- Combine. Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Use a fork to crush any clumps of seasonings.
- Use or store. If using fresh lemon zest, use this seasoning immediately. Any leftovers (with dried lemon zest), can be stored for a couple months in an airtight container.
