Mole Verde Chicken Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and sear the chicken thighs until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

2. 2

   Sauté Vegetables

   In the same skillet, add the diced red onion and minced jalapeño. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

3. 3

   Add Corn and Broth

   Add the corn and chicken broth to the skillet. Stir well to combine, then bring to a simmer.

4. 4

   Return Chicken to Skillet

   Return the seared chicken thighs to the skillet, cover, and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

5. 5

   Finish with Lime and Cilantro

   Once the chicken is cooked, squeeze lime juice over the dish and stir in the chopped cilantro. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the mole verde chicken hot, garnished with extra cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
