French Seafood Seasoning
A bold, garlicky seafood seasoning with paprika, onion, black pepper, cayenne, sea salt, and French-style herbs for shrimp, crab, crawfish, catfish, salmon, white fish, and so much more.
French Seafood Seasoning takes its cue from the bayou kitchens of Louisiana, where French cooking met Southern spice and the seafood never tasted the same again. Garlic leads the way, paprika brings warm color, and a pinch of cayenne gives it a friendly kick that wakes up everything it touches.
What makes this blend special is the finish. Thyme, oregano, and basil add a fragrant, herby lift that keeps the heat balanced and the flavor bright. It is spicy enough to be exciting but smooth enough to use every single day.
Shake it over shrimp before they hit the pan, rub it on catfish or salmon before grilling, or stir it into butter for an easy seafood dip. It is just as good on potatoes, rice, chicken, and roasted vegetables.
What Does French Seafood Seasoning Taste Like?
French Seafood Seasoning tastes savory, garlicky, and gently spicy with an herbaceous finish. Garlic and onion build a rich savory base, paprika adds warm earthiness, black pepper and cayenne bring medium heat, sea salt brightens it up, and thyme, oregano, and basil round it out with a fresh, French-inspired herb note.
Best Ways to Use French Seafood Seasoning
- Shrimp: Toss with shrimp and a little oil before sautéing, grilling, or broiling.
- Crab and crawfish: Sprinkle over crab legs, crab cakes, or crawfish, or stir into melted butter for dipping.
- Fish: Season catfish, salmon, tilapia, cod, haddock, or walleye before baking, pan searing, or frying.
- Gumbo, jambalaya, and étouffée: Use as your main seasoning for Louisiana-style one-pot dinners.
- Rice: Stir into dirty rice, seafood rice, or a simple pot of buttered rice.
- Potatoes and fries: Great on French fries, roasted potatoes, potato wedges, and potato salad.
- Chicken and pork: Rub on chicken wings, thighs, or pork chops for a little Southern heat.
- Vegetables and corn: Sprinkle over corn on the cob, green beans, zucchini, or sweet potatoes.
- Dips and sauces: Mix into mayo, sour cream, or remoulade for a quick seafood sauce.
