Description
This Best Steak Seasoning Recipe is a perfectly balanced blend of spices that enhances the natural flavors of your steak, creating a savory, slightly smoky crust with every bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine all the spices and herbs thoroughly.
- Pat the steak dry with paper towels.
- Generously sprinkle the seasoning mix on both sides of the steak, pressing lightly to adhere.
- Let the steak rest with the seasoning for at least 30 minutes before cooking, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours for deeper flavor.
