Gran Luchito Mexican
This will depend on your tolerance for spice and heat as well as the other flavours and ingredients in the dish. For chilli con carne, we generally suggest adding 3 teaspoons of Chipotle Paste, fajitas for 2 we suggest 2 teaspoons of Chipotle Paste and a lrge pork shoulder cooked in the slow cooker we recommend adding 1 tablespoon. If you prefer your food milder then halve the amount recommended in the recipe to add smokiness but not too much spice.
Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste is made from a blend of smoke, dried chipotle chillies and rare Mexican chillies. The taste begins with smokiness from the chillies then sweetness from the caramelised onion and finally the heat kicks in. It's perfect for when you want to add a smoky depth of flavour to your Mexican dishes.
Chipotle Paste is a really versatile ingredient that works well in so many dishes, but Chilli Con Carne is our favourite Mexican dish for Chipotle Paste. It adds such a delicious smoky depth of flavour.
Our Chipotle paste is found in the Mexican section of Supermarkets across the UK, Ireland Middle East and Australia including Sainsbury's, Tesco, Waitrose, Woolworths, Spinneys, IGA, Dunnes and Ocado.
You can also find our Chipotle Paste on Amazon in the UK and USA.
If you don't have Chipotle Paste in your kitchen cupboard then you could try using Chipotle flakes or powder in the recipes.
