• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
