In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried basil, dried oregano, sea salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed and incorporated.
Transfer the Southern Fried Chicken seasoning mixture to an airtight container, such as a spice jar or container with a tight-fitting lid.
Store the seasoning in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify over time.
