Why This Recipe Works

Sazón is the go-to spice blend in many Latin American home kitchens. While it is available in the Latin American aisle at most supermarkets, it is easy to assemble at home. In our blend, we use paprika to mimic the color of the ground annatto seeds typically used in sazón. Garlic powder, ground coriander, ground cumin, and salt round out the flavors.

Before You Begin

We add paprika in place of annatto for color. In addition to flavoring our Arroz con Pollo, this blend makes a great seasoning for eggs, beans, and fish. Store it in an airtight container for several months.
