- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano or thyme (optional)
Instructions
- Gather and Measure Your Ingredients: Collect all your seasoning ingredients and measure them out precisely. Accurate measurements ensure that your seasoning blend has balanced flavors and that it’s easy to replicate each time.
