Mediterranean Seasoning Blend

The flavor profile

Mediterranean seasoning is a broad description, not one universal recipe. This version is herb-led: oregano and dill define its character, with parsley and garlic supporting them. Unlike the Cajun and jerk blends here, its ingredient list contains no cayenne or red pepper flakes.

What to use it on

It fits the listed chicken, gyro and salad dishes. If you want a different herb profile for pasta or pizza, explore Italian Herb instead; that blend uses basil, thyme and rosemary.

Common questions

Is Mediterranean seasoning spicy?

Not this version. It has no cayenne, chili powder or red pepper flakes, so the heat setting doesn't change it. Black pepper is its only peppery note.

How much Mediterranean seasoning should I use?

The collection's guide is about 1 tbsp per pound of chicken. Start there, then taste and adjust next time.

Can I make a marinade with it?

Yes. Stir the dry blend into olive oil with a squeeze of lemon juice for a quick marinade for chicken, or a simple dressing for salads.

Is this the same as Italian seasoning?

No. Mediterranean Seasoning uses oregano, dill and parsley with salt and pepper. Italian Herb combines basil, oregano, thyme and rosemary with garlic and red pepper flakes. Pick the profile that suits your dish.

Make it with Spice Blends Made Easy

Choose a dry batch of 1 tbsp, ¼ cup, ½ cup or 1 cup and get the ingredient amounts in spoon-and-cup measurements. Mild, Medium, Hot and Fiery settings adjust chili powder, cayenne or red pepper flakes where the recipe includes them. Blends without those ingredients do not gain extra chili heat.
