Chicken In Mole Sauce Recipe
My daughter would order this every time we went shopping in Mexico. It pairs wonderfully with Mexican rice and frijoles. Pass the warm flour tortillas.

Is this dish sweet ?????...sounds like it would be with the raisins and chocolate.....sounds interesting...Hmmmmmm...I might have to try it soon.


I am familiar with mole, but it always had some kind of ground nuts it it. Peanuts, almonds, pine nuts or pumpkin seeds. Yours sounds delicious and I am definitely going to give it a try, but I wondered if the nuts were ommited by accident.


I'm not familiar with moles. In fact, I was going to say you left them out until I read dandelion's comment. This sounds really good. I'm going to make it.
