Cajun spices are very popular in the South, and are a great addition to sauces, Jambalaya or marinades. We love the slightly spicy taste that it brings, and it's perfect when added to grilled chicken or fish. To make a Cajun spice mix from scratch, simple pair 2 tablespoons of paprika, oregano and thyme, with 1 teaspoon of powdered garlic, white pepper, green pepper and Cayenne pepper.
