Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Chicken
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season chicken thighs with salt and brown them on all sides for about 8-10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
2. Prepare the Mole Sauce
In the same pot, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened. Add tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes.
3. Toast the Spices and Chiles
In a dry skillet, toast the almonds, sesame seeds, cinnamon stick, black peppercorns, cumin seeds, and cloves until fragrant. Remove from heat. In the same skillet, toast the dried chiles briefly until they darken slightly.
4. Blend the Mole Sauce
In a blender, combine the sautéed vegetables, toasted nuts, seeds, spices, and chiles. Add chicken broth gradually until smooth. You may need to adjust the consistency with more broth.
5. Cook the Mole
Pour the blended mole sauce back into the pot and add the chicken. Simmer over low heat for 30-40 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens. Add sugar and salt to taste.
6. Serve
Serve the chicken on a plate with mole sauce drizzled over the top. Enjoy with rice or tortillas.
