Mole Chicken Tacos

FAQ

In general, moles mix ingredients from five different categories: chiles (at least two different types); sour (tomatoes or tomatillos); sweet (dried fruits or sugar); spices; and thickeners (bread, nuts or seeds). Once the paste is formed, it's mixed with water or broth, and then simmered for hours until it's thick.
Tortillas, black or refried beans, and rice make nice accompaniments, of course. Mole can also be added to masa (the starchy dough made from corn) or meat when wrapped in banana leaves or corn husks for tamales, served in a bowl alongside tortillas for dipping, or drizzled over eggs for breakfast.
Mole can be served atop any meat, but in my experience, mole is best served over chicken. I prefer to buy a whole chicken, slice it apart, and set it to boil while I make the mole sauce.
