I know I should be blogging about handbags and crochet, but today I'm making my husband's favorite meal, Chicken Mole`, and I wanted to share my easy way to prepare it. This method is in no way meant to compare to any authentic recipe or come close to how my dear mother-in-law would have prepared it, along with her "to die for" hand rolled tortillas.
Nevertheless, my husband loves it. Following is my easy recipe; which in no way lacks flavorful taste.
Two large chicken breasts simmered in low sodium chicken broth. I use the box of broth or 3 low sodium chicken bouillon cubes in about 5 cups of water.
Remove the chicken, when done, and shred in pieces with two forks. Set aside.
To the broth, add 1 pkg. of McCormick Taco Seasoning Mix (hot or original). Blend with whisk.
Simmer for about five minutes.
Make a pourable thickener for the mole` with three or four teaspoons of cornstarch and a little water.
Pour slowly into the mole` and use a whisk to keep it smooth.
Put the shredded chicken back into the thickened mole` and boil uncovered for 5 minutes. That's it!
Serve over your favorite Spanish Rice recipe.
Scoop up with purchased 8" flour tortillas which have been browned on a grilling pan or skillet.
We usually have sliced avocado and cilantro on top but, with all the snow, the supermarket didn't have any.
That sounds like something my whole family would enjoy! Thanks for sharing!
