Rosemary Citrus Rub

Rosemary Citrus Rub

orangezestThis is a great way to make the most of your citrus fruit.  When juicing for recipes try zesting the fruit first and reserving it to make a tasty rub.  You’ll add some brightness to your next poultry or fish dish by using this rub from the zest of citrus mixed with some salt and herbs.   Start by smushing some zested citrus like lemons or limes with some salt (1/2 teaspoon salt per lemon) and then combining it with minced rosemary and some garlic powder.

I really love this on chicken and it can serve as a nice hostess gift the next time you are invited to dinner.  Also, this is great with oranges or limes.  Uh oh, lime salt makes me think it’s margarita time…

What will you sprinkle this on?

    1. I also like thyme and sage but ginger might be nice for an Asian flavor twist.
