Capsicana Cooking Sauces

Hello, all!
It's been a while! I do apologise work has taken most of my summer and most of my social life (no joke but that's life) I have been working in a kitchen up in Cork City for work experience for college! But enough of that on one of my days off, I made a lovely dinner with a cooking sauce from Capsicana which kindly sent me four samples of their four chilli cooking sauces for me to try out.

First, all let's get to know a little bit about the company!
Founded by Ben Jackson, inspired by eating a lot of Mexican cantinas. Ben first developed the love of Mexican food when he and his father travelled to Texas to visit family friend's which began the evolution of Capsicana.

There are four flavours of sauces
Brazilian chilli & coconut (hot heat)
Cuban chilli & lime (hot heat)
Mexican chilli & honey (medium heat)
Pervuvian chilli & lemon (mild heat)

I cooked with the Pervuuvian chilli &lemon sauce.
I only needed five ingredients including the sauce to cook a quick and tasty dinner for two!

• 1 onion (diced)
• 1 green or red pepper (diced)
• 500g of chicken (diced)
• Capsicana cooking sauce
• Rice

1. Cook the chicken all together on a hot pan or saucepan for until golden colour
2. Boil the rice while cooking the chicken
3. Remove the chicken from the heat and put on a plate
4. Add the onion and pepper to the pan saute for 2-3 minutes 
5. After cooking onion and pepper add the chicken again 
6. Pour over the cooking sauce mixing through 
7. Serve!

So verdict with the sibling and father they both enjoyed the dinner and flavour of the cooking sauce. For me, I'm not a huge fan of the flavour lemon but with this cooking sauce, it tasted sweeter than sour which I was happy with. The combination of chilli and lemon was perfect and was very tasty. Would I have it again? Yes and was a bit hit with the family which is great!
Now I just need to try out the three other flavours!

Capsicana is now been sold in Sainsbury's since August 13th, Waitrose, and a few other independent stores. But if you are living in Ireland you can purchase their sauces on BuckleyandBeale
