Boil the chicken in the chicken stock for 35 minutes and reserve the stock.
Toast the dried peppers in a pan for 30 seconds.
Soften the peppers in hot water for 15 minutes.
Toast the sesame, peanuts, onion, tomatoes, and tortilla for 8 minutes.
Blend the mixture smooth with the peppers and chicken stock.
Thicken the sauce in a pot for 30 minutes and melt in the chocolate.
Warm the boiled chicken in the mole for 10 minutes and serve.
💡 Tip: Briefly toasting the peppers without burning them gives the mole deep smokiness instead of bitterness.
