How to Make Asian Spice Rub

  1. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon ginger powder, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/2 teaspoon sea salt.
  2. Stir all ingredients thoroughly until the spice rub is evenly mixed and fragrant.
  3. Apply generously to your protein or vegetables before cooking. For best results, let the rub sit on the food for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Cook according to your preferred method (grilling, baking, pan-frying) for approximately 15 minutes, or until cooked through.
