Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Rub the chicken halves with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place them in a roasting pan.

Prepare the Chicken

Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste with mole sauce during the last 15 minutes of cooking.

Roast the Chicken

While the chicken is roasting, peel and slice the plantains. In a pot, boil them in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash with butter until smooth.

Cook the Plantains

In a skillet, sauté the green beans with minced garlic in olive oil over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and lime juice.

Sauté the Green Beans

Plate the roasted chicken alongside the mashed plantains and sautéed green beans. Drizzle additional mole sauce over the chicken if desired.
