Directions:<\/h2>\n
\n

Cook the chicken:<\/h4>\n
Add the chicken, the whole onion, 3 cloves of garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt and 8 cups of water to a large pot and bring it to a boil.<\/div>\n
Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the chicken has cooked through and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F. Add a few extra cups of water if the water level gets too low.<\/div>\n
Remove the chicken from the broth and set aside then strain the broth and save it for later.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Prepare the Mole sauce<\/h4>\n
While the chicken is cooking, heat the oven to 475 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with sides with nonstick aluminum foil.<\/div>\n
Add the cleaned Guajillo, Ancho and Pasilla peppers to the pan and toast them for 6 minutes, flipping them halfway through.<\/div>\n
Remove the pan from the oven and set aside while you fill a large bowl with warm water.<\/div>\n
Soak the chilis in the water for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. Drain the chilis from the water and set aside.<\/div>\n
While the chilis are soaking, roast the tomatoes and sliced onion on the same baking sheet for 20 minutes, or until the bottoms of the tomatoes and onions turn a dark brown or black color.<\/div>\n
Add tomatoes, onions, 8-10 garlic cloves, prunes, toasted tortillas, 2 teaspoons salt, oregano, cinnamon, cloves, and 3 cups of chicken broth (use the leftover from the chicken or store-bought broth) to a blender or food processor. Blend for 3 minutes or until smooth.<\/div>\n
Coat the bottom of a large pot with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and place over low heat (use the same one that you cooked the chicken in).<\/div>\n
Strain the mole sauce through a fine mesh strainer directly into the pot, leaving about a cup of sauce in the blender.<\/div>\n
Add the chilis to the blender along with at least 3 more cups of chicken broth or more as needed. Blend for 3-4 minutes, or until smooth. Strain the sauce through the mesh strainer directly into the pot and stir to combine.<\/div>\n
Bring the heat up to medium and let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 30-45 minutes, or until it reaches your desired thickness. The longer it simmers, the thicker it will be.<\/div>\n
Add in the chocolate, peanut butter and sugar and stir until dissolved. Simmer for another 5 minutes. Taste and add more salt or sugar as needed.<\/div>\n
Place chicken in a large shallow bowl or deep platter and pour the mole sauce over. Serve with Mexican rice, garnished with fresh cilantro and toasted sesame seeds.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Enjoy !!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
