A little cayenne goes a long way. Should adjust 1 tablespoon to according to taste. A tablespoon of that is too much for us. Salt reduction also needed. I used 1 tablespoon. Better than frying!

The blackening seasoning is slightly overpowered by the thyme. However, if the thyme is reduced by half or even less, it is amazing! I use it on blackened chicken as well.
