This is a dish I have made for twenty years and I think I change it a bit every time. I use my own spice mix but if there’s a Cajun blend you like, use that.

This is mine:
Spice Mix
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika or smoked paprika
1  tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried thyme
