Cajun spice

Bayou flavor blend

Cajun spice is a pungent seasoning blend associated with Louisiana Cajun cooking, typically combining paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic, onion, and herbs like oregano and thyme.

The mix delivers heat and earthiness to blackened fish, jambalaya, and gumbo: Season the shrimp liberally with Cajun spice before grilling.
