I found this recipe online at http://kalynskitchen.blogspot.com/. It was excellent. I used a fresh lemon for the zest and juice. You could taste a little tang from the lemon but not overpowering. It calls for Greek seasoning. There is a recipe for this seasoning also. Anyway I couldn't find it at my store so made the recipe. The recipe makes enough for a few uses. Can be stored in a airtight container. If you have a vacuum sealer it would be easy to make a small packet for the seasoning.
