    Cooking tips

    While this recipe is incredibly easy to make, here are a few tips that can make your prep work a breeze.

    • Mix your spices in a mason jar, closing the lid to combine. Then, store it in the same jar.

    How to serve

    You can use this spice mix in several different meals, with recipes that fit any time of day!

    For a Greek-inspired meal, use this mix to cook homemade gyro meat. Serve alongside lettuce wraps, a fresh Greek salad with zoodles, and air fryer turnips cooked in lemon juice and olive oil.

    Homemade Greek seasoning also makes a great dry rub for roasted chicken legs or crispy chicken wings. Don't forget to serve them with a delicious dipping sauce like my jalapeno ranch dip or keto bang bang sauce.

    Lastly, Greek seasoning works well to season any of your favorite vegetable side dishes, adding a burst of flavor without any added sugars or carbs.

    Try it on roasted jicama with green beans, oven-roasted asparagus, or roasted celery root and radishes.

    While this authentic Greek seasoning is hard to beat, that doesn't mean you can't have fun with a few switch-ups! Here are a few variations to try:

    • Add cayenne pepper for a bit of heat.
    • Include a small amount of sugar-free keto sweetener, like Swerve, for instant sweetness.
    • Add salt to your seasoning blend for easy cooking.

    FAQs

    These are a few common questions I get about my homemade Greek seasoning recipe. If you don't see your question answered, please leave it for me in the comments down below.

    What is Greek seasoning used for?

    Greek seasoning flavors protein-focused dishes, including seafood, chicken, lamb, and more. It's also commonly used in a variety of Greek dishes like lemon potatoes, Greek rice, and roasted vegetables.

    On a keto diet, you can use my Greek seasoning recipe in most of your top savory recipes to add an authentic Greek flavor with only 1g net carbs per serving.

    What is the main seasoning in Greek food?

    Greek food does not phone it in when it comes to seasoning! You'll find incredible aromatic spices like oregano, dill, basil, garlic, and thyme in Greek dishes.

    Greek seasoning mixes take the best and most commonly-used seasoning in Greek food and blend them together.

    What is a good substitute for Greek seasoning?

    If you don't have Greek seasoning on hand, there are a few other spices and blends that make an excellent substitute.

    Za'atar originates in the Middle East and is commonly used in Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, and several other countries. It has an herby, citrus flavor, made from marjoram, oregano, sumac, thyme, cumin, and toasted sesame seeds.

    Herbes de Provence is also a worthy substitute, combining herbs in French cooking, including parsley, fennel, marjoram, tarragon, dried lavender, and more.

    Lastly, Italian seasoning can work in a pinch, made from rosemary, basil, thyme, marjoram, and oregano.

    You will notice the overlap in some of these spices. While they all taste quite different, these overlaps allow substitute spices to taste right at home in many recipes.
