Developed in collaboration with the Los Angeles Times, L.A. Asada is inspired by the cookouts that happen every weekend in parks and backyards across the city. It’s about juicy grilled meat, cold drinks, good music and food that’s meant to be shared. This blend captures that spirit in spice form.
Kashmiri chili brings warm color and gentle heat, while cumin and black pepper lay down a savory backbone. Wild mesquite and smoked pimentón paprika add depth and smoky sweetness, black lime brings brightness and red jalapeño flakes deliver a little kick. Garlic, onion and oregano tie it all together, with salt built in for easy seasoning.
Use L.A. Asada as a dry rub for steaks, chops or fish before grilling or roasting. It also makes an excellent taco seasoning. Sprinkle one to two tablespoons per pound over sautéed ground meat or stir it into calabacitas for an easy, crowd-pleasing meal.
