Mole Poblano Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Mole Sauce

In a saucepan over medium heat, add the mole sauce and let it simmer for 5-10 minutes until heated through.

2

Combine Chicken and Sauce

Add the shredded chicken to the mole sauce, stirring to coat the chicken evenly. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the chicken is heated through.

3

Prepare the Rice

While the chicken is cooking, reheat the cooked rice in a separate pot or in the microwave.

4

Serve

On a serving plate, place a portion of the rice. Top with the mole chicken mixture. Add a dollop of sour cream on the side, a serving of salad greens, and warm tortillas. Garnish with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro if desired.
