Chicken Mole

Chicken with a mole sauce and sesame seeds, served with rice and fresh salsa, served in a white bowl.

A savory Mexican inspired chicken that will impress!

Ingredients:

Directions:

Brown the chicken in the EVOO, remove, and set aside. Put a little more EVOO and a drizzle of the garlic and chipotle oils in the pan and sauté the onion. Stir in the rest of the ingredients in the pan to make the sauce. Place the chicken back in the sauce and simmer for about half an hour, or until the chicken is cooked through.

You can adjust the bitterness/sweetness of the sauce by changing the proportions of chocolate and peanut butter: more peanut butter makes it sweeter and more chocolate makes it more bitter.

Buon appetito,
Mario
