adobo seasoning

Garlic-paprika blend

Adobo seasoning is a spice blend used in Latin American and Filipino cooking, typically combining garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, black pepper, and sometimes cumin or citrus.

The mix varies by region and brand.

It's a pantry staple for seasoning meat, rice, beans, and vegetables: I rubbed adobo seasoning on the chicken before grilling.
