Mole (pronounced MOH-lay) is a Mexican sauce made with chiles, spices, nuts, and other various ingredients. Some mole recipes (such as this one) contain chocolate. The sauce is known for its rich, earthy, and nutty flavor. It can be used as a sauce or a marinade.
INGREDIENTS
- 7 New Mexico or guajillo Chile pods
- 1 Chile pasilla
- 1/2 small white onion
- 1 roma tomato
- 1/2 Mexican chocolate disk
- 4 garlic cloves
- 2 bay leaves
- 15 salatine crackers
- 1 inch of cinnamon stick
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 4 all spice
- 3 whole cloves
- 1/4 tsp whole cumin
- 3 lbs chicken
- optional 1 jar of Doña Maria mole sauce. It’s not necessary since all the ingredients above are to make the sauce itself but it's often used to kick it up with a stronger flavor.
