Description

This Oaxacan mole chicken is a traditional Mexican dish that I always prepare at home. The mole, with its complex and slightly spicy flavor, combines perfectly with the tender chicken. The recipe is simple, although it requires a little patience to dissolve the mole paste well. Ideal for a family meal or a special celebration. The aroma it gives off while cooking is simply irresistible! It can be accompanied with white rice and corn tortillas. A comforting and flavorful dish.
