Easy Chicken Mole Recipe - Food.com image

This is the easiest Mole recipe you will ever find. I use a premade Mole sauce and spice it up to the amount of hotness I want. The brand I use is usually found in Wal-Mart. I use boneless skinless chicken thighs but any other chicken part can be used. The cooking time if really depending on how long the chicken cooks and how long you wait for the cooling of the water for the blending.

Total Time 40 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 35 minutes

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (8 1/4 ounce) jar mole (I use the brand "Rogelio Bueno", Autentico Mole Sauce)
1 -2 jalapeno (Seeded and Deveined)
10 -12 boneless skinless chicken thighs

Steps:

  • In a heavy sauce pan boil the chicken thighs, no need to salt the water but you may if you desire. Don’t discard the cooking water you will use it later.
  • In a blender combine the premade Mole sauce and jalapenos. Using the jar the Mole came in add 3 jarfuls of the cooking water you used to cook the chicken. Blend until smooth and you don’t see chunks of jalapenos.
  • (Note: before blending you may want to wait for the water to cool down for a few minutes the heat of the water may make your blender top fly off spraying mole sauce everywhere. Experience talks--trust me.).
  • Discard the unused water, leaving the chicken in the pot, once you have blended the mole sauce add it to the chicken and stir heating it through.
  • Serve and enjoy! Try it with my Rice Recipe #199280, and corn tortillas.

Provided by Mark Evitt

Total Time 1 hours 15 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 21

1/2 cup well-drained Muir Glen™ organic fire-roasted diced tomatoes (from 14.5-oz can)
2 tablespoons sesame seed
2 tablespoons slivered almonds
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup dark raisins
Dash salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder
1/4 cup chili powder
1 1/2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/4 cup Progresso™ plain bread crumbs
2 1/2 to 3 cups Progresso™ reduced-sodium chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
2 lb (about 8) boneless skinless chicken thighs
Fresh cilantro leaves
Additional sesame seed

Steps:

  • Place tomatoes in medium bowl. Place 10- or 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add sesame seed and almonds; toast about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they begin to brown. Pour seed and nuts into bowl with tomatoes.
  • Return skillet to heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, the onion, garlic and raisins; season with dash salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes or until onion is translucent and raisins are puffed. Add onion, garlic and raisins to tomatoes.
  • Return skillet to heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, the chipotle powder and chili powder; stir until oil and spices are well blended. Cook about 5 minutes or until powders begin to smoke and darken. Remove from heat. Add chocolate; stir until chocolate melts.
  • Pour melted chocolate-spice mixture into tomato mixture. Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, the cinnamon, cloves, brown sugar and bread crumbs; stir until well combined.
  • In blender, place tomato mixture and 1 cup of the chicken broth. Cover; blend at least 1 minute, gradually turning up to high speed. If sauce is not passing through blender blades smoothly, add more broth. Strain sauce to remove any sesame seed bits that didn’t get blended completely. Set aside.
  • In 10-inch skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 7 to 10 minutes or until browned on both sides. Remove chicken from skillet; place on plate and set aside.
  • Add strained sauce to same skillet. Stir in additional chicken broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until the consistency of whipping cream (1 1/2 to 2 cups). Taste sauce; adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Heat sauce to boiling. Return chicken to skillet (chicken should be completely covered with sauce). Reduce heat to simmer; cook 15 to 20 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when thickest part is cut (at least 165°F). Serve chicken and sauce garnished with cilantro and additional sesame seed.
