Here we’ve got a Jamaican favourite of jerk chicken with rice & peas, a salad and a fiery hot pepper sauce flavoured with habanero chilli on the side. It makes a fantastic meal and you could even cook the chicken on the barbecue if the weather’s nice! Allspice is a prominent flavour in Caribbean cooking - it has a lovely scent of nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon, but the name leads many people to believe it’s a blend rather than a single ingredient. In Jamaica, the allspice flavour in jerk would be enhanced by using allspice branches and leaves on the charcoal over which the meat would be cooked.

Jerk Halloumi (veggie option) with rice and beans, hot sauce (hot hot hot
Jamaican curry with mango hot sauce. We had the vegetarian version with butternut squash. Very tasty even though it had a big kick of chilli.
This is a fiery one! Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice one!
This looks great!! Hope you had a brilliant evening!
Loved the rice and beans with this one!
Wow look at the char on that! Sounds incredible, Happy Spicing!
After weeks travelling, back into the kitchen to make the perfect dish for the "Mists and Mellow Fruitfulness" of Autumn. Changed Kidney to Butter Beans and found a strong Fizz to enjoy with it all. Thank You
This looks delicious- thank you for sharing! Glad you enjoyed it and happy spicing!
Amazing flavour and the hot sauce was amazing! This is allowing us to travel the world of flavours from our home during isolation. Thanks again The Spicery another great spice kit. We will definitely be having this again!
Fantastic! Happy spicing!
This was sooo good. I normally use fiery sauces sparingly but not this time. The hot sauce in this kit had a lovely flavour that really enhanced the meal. Definitely one to buy again (and again...).
Fantastic- this is a favourite at Spicery HQ too!
This was really tasty! The jerk chicken (and halloumi for the vegetarian) was really flavourful. The hot sauce was very hot! Glad I made a tropical coleslaw as a side ;o) Already being asked when I’m making it again!
WOW hats off to the chef- this looks delicious! Great shout serving it with coleslaw too, a winning combination!
Easy to cook and so tasty My husband isn’t usually a big fan of very spicy food but he loved it and even had the hot sauce too. Will Definitely be ordering this kit again
It's great that your husband was converted to trying a bit of heat with this one, that's what we like to hear! Fantastic work!
First time of trying your spice kit. Wow!! Fantastic ... restaurant quality food at home Just what we all need in the present climate
Wow, look at that sweet, sticky glaze on the the chicken - a mouth-watering debut! We're so happy to hear how much you loved your first spice kit!
Excellent service
Excellent service - my order arrived the next day!
Such a great idea- delicious spices put together to create fabulous, authentic dishes from around the world at home!
I would - and will - order again, and I recommend The Spicery at every opportunity, because their produxts are truly fantastic. However, the packaging was a bit lacking this time. When the parcel arrived, one side was completely open. It was sheer luck -
Fantastic dish, just make sure you get good quality chicken to do it justice.
I love The Spidery. Their spices are very high quality and as fresh as can be. Their spice kits are a weekly treat for us; always something new and interesting and always easy to follow.
Superb highly recommended
As usual great kits and prompt shipping
Quick delivery of excellent products
Turned up quickly and well packed.
Delicious - so much better than anything you could buy in supermarket or takeaway
They are quick to send me my curry packs out every month. Can't fault them in the service they provide. The curry packs are fab, very different recipes to the other company I used. Anyone looking for something a bit different give them a try.
Ordered from the Spicery many times .They have an excellent range to choose from and every one I,'ve tried has been very good and each product has very easy steps to make so you can,t go wrong .Ordering is very easy and delivery is very prompt and swift
Easy to use the site, goods quickly arrive. I have made at least 8 of your curry meals so far....all have been really delicious so if you love spice, definitely try some.
Nice mix of spices, easy to use.
Great gifts and they have been very well received. Fab recipes
Very good spices, easy to cook and very very tasty
Absolutely authentic. A delight to eat.
Ordered 2 kits. Always really tasty recipes and easy to follow guide. I've recommended the spicery to many friends and family.
Tasted great but next time I would marinade the chicken overnight
Easy instructions and great meal
Quick delivery. Easy to follow recipe. Awesome taste
Most of the meals are pretty nice, a few of them I can make better myself. Some of the instructions aren't that clear (e.g. 'cook for 50 minutes', rather than 'simmer' or 'boil'), . The delivery was about a week late, not the Spicery's fault, but they'd i
Brilliant service will recommend to friends
Goods were dispatched with the usual promptness and efficiency. Reliable company. Although the recipes have yet to be sampled, I know from previous experience that they will not disappoint.
Speedy, especially considering the international delivery
I love the spicery. Never been disappointed. Great spices and recipe kits which are very easy to make.
Great service. Order processed same day and mailed back. Recipe kits reliably good.
Hot and spicy, does what it says!
Easy to cook from conrner-shop ingredients producing amazing flavours and using accessible cooking techniques. I used this for a dinner party and it worked really well. Plus I got the leftovers for lunch at work. All happy.
Delivery was very fast and well packaged. The packaging is very attractive but not sure if its recyclable. Cooking instructions are easy to follow and best of all the meal is gorgeous. A simple way to try something new that taste home cooked. Perfect! Thank you
Excellent product producing excellent tasty food.
Excellent service, fast delivery, delicious range of spices
Delivery very quick. Bought for a present, and the person was really pleased with them. Would definately use this company again.
No problems ordered and stuff with me within one week good instructions on how to make dishes well thought out
Great spice kits, very easy to use and give great flavours to each dish
Very quick delivery
Excellent curry, as always!
Prompt delivery, good packaging and the spice mix we've tried so far was lush!
This was bought for someone else so I don't know what it was like. I've rated it good based on my experience with other spice kits from the Spicery.
Items bought as a Christmas present, and have made many purchases from this company, highly recommend ............
We have been given spice packs before as a gift and loved them. So when it came to a well-travelled friend it was the perfect gift. She is delighted with the choice and the product. We were very pleased with the communication and quick delivery.
Not tried the kit yet, but to leave feedback I have to rate. Sure it will be as good as everything else!
Very spicy tasted great easy to do
Excellent service, would highly recommend the Spicery, excellent range of spices for all types of cooking.
Great kit to make a good jerk chicken with minimal fuss.
Yum yum yum! I don't think there is one recipe kit from all the ones we have tried so far that we haven't liked. It is really useful have the spiciness rating on the front too.
