The recipe for this seasoning mix makes about 6 tablespoons, so there is plenty of mix leftover for the next time you make this chicken. Grandma often used the extra seasoning mix to coat other foods--potatoes or vegetables--to serve as a side dish, or a variety of meats, such as pork chops or steaks. Store the extra seasoning mix in an airtight container.
