Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Black peppercorns
• 2 teaspoons Dried lime zest
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon Granulated garlic
• 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon Ground coriander

Directions

Step 1

1. Begin by preparing your dried lime zest. If you’re using fresh lime zest, spread it out on a parchment-lined baking sheet and air-dry it overnight or place it in a 200°F (93°C) oven for 10-15 minutes until fully dried. Allow it to cool completely before proceeding.

Step 2

2. Toast the black peppercorns in a small dry skillet over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Be sure to stir or shake the pan frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

3. In a spice grinder or mortar and pestle, crush the toasted black peppercorns to your desired coarseness. A medium grind works well, but adjust to your preference.

Step 4

4. Once the peppercorns are ground, transfer them to a small mixing bowl.

Step 5

5. Add the dried lime zest, kosher salt, granulated garlic, cayenne pepper, and ground coriander to the bowl with the ground pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients thoroughly.

Step 6

6. Transfer the lime pepper seasoning to an airtight jar or container. Store in a cool, dry place for up to 3 months.

Step 7

7. Use this seasoning as a delicious rub, sprinkle, or finishing touch for your favorite dishes!
