If you love Mediterranean flavors, having a jar of homemade Greek seasoning in your pantry is a must. This simple blend of herbs and spices adds bright, savory flavor to everything from grilled chicken and roasted vegetables to potatoes, salads, and homemade marinades.

Instead of buying a store-bought mix that may contain preservatives or fillers, you can easily make your own Greek seasoning at home with herbs you probably already have in your spice cabinet. It takes just a few minutes to mix, and the flavor is fresher and more vibrant than anything you can buy at the store.

Once you make this blend, you’ll find yourself reaching for it all the time!

Why Make Greek Seasoning at Home?

Making your own seasoning blends is one of the easiest ways to elevate your cooking. Homemade Greek seasoning is:

• Quick and easy to make
• Made with simple pantry spices
• Fresh and flavorful
• Perfect for chicken, seafood, vegetables, and potatoes
• Easy to customize to your taste

It also stores well, so you can make a batch and keep it on hand whenever you need it.

Homemade Greek Seasoning Ingredients

This simple spice blend combines classic Mediterranean herbs with a hint of citrusy lemon pepper for that signature Greek flavor.

You will need:

• 1 ½ tablespoons dried Greek oregano
• 1 tablespoon ground thyme
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• 1 tablespoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 ½ tablespoons lemon pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

These herbs create a savory, aromatic seasoning that works beautifully in a variety of dishes.

How to Make Your Own Greek Seasoning

Making this seasoning mix couldn’t be easier.

Step 1: Combine the Herbs

In a small bowl, add the oregano, thyme, basil, parsley, rosemary, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon pepper, and salt.

Step 2: Mix Well

Use a spoon or small whisk to stir everything together until the herbs and spices are evenly combined.

Step 3: Store the Seasoning

Transfer the mixture to an airtight spice jar or small glass container. Store it in a cool, dry place like your spice cabinet.

For the best flavor, try to use your homemade seasoning within 6 months.

A good Greek seasoning can be used in so many ways. I use Greek seasoning on all kinds of meat, like pork chops, in dips, and on chicken. This Greek seasoning stays true to tradition with the flavors of lemon, thyme, parsley, and olive oil. Just make sure you know the right packaging for your spices to preserve their flavor.

Mix well and store in an airtight container. I store mine in a mason jar, which works quite well.
