Easy Chicken Mole

Be the first to rate this recipe

Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. (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.).
  4. 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.
  5. Serve and enjoy! Try it with my Rice Recipe #199280, and corn tortillas.
