CHICKEN IN A CHOCOLATE SAUCE
This recipe is adapted from "the Encyclopedia of Creative Cooking" which has been around forever. I like the interesting mix of ingredients. It is reminiscent of a mole but much more simple and not spicy. It called for a whole disjointed chicken which I have replaced with chicken breasts. If you use boneless chicken breasts you will need to watch the cooking time as it will cook faster. I liked Recipe #248470 with this dish.

SPICED CHICKEN WITH CHOCOLATE PASILLA SAUCE

Yield 4 to 6 servings
Number Of Ingredients 16
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Rinse the chicken and pat dry. In a medium bowl, mix the chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Set a cooling or baking rack into a baking sheet. Place the chicken pieces on the rack and drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Rub the spice mixture all over. Rub some of the mixture in between the skin and the breast meat. Transfer to the oven and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 160 degrees F and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove the chicken from the oven and cover with some aluminum foil. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the tomato sauce and chicken broth and cook over medium-high heat until the flavors incorporate, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a blender with the soaked pasilla chiles and puree until smooth. Return to the same saucepan and add the chopped chocolate, stirring over medium heat until fully melted, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter. Top with the chocolate pasilla sauce. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right chocolate. Not all chocolates are created equal. For this recipe, you'll want to use a high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. This will give your chicken a rich, complex flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make chicken with chocolate. You can use different types of chocolate, different spices, and different cooking methods. Get creative and find a combination that you love.
- Be careful not to overcook the chicken. Chicken is a delicate protein, and it can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, about 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before serving. Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Chicken with chocolate is a delicious and unique dish that is sure to impress your guests. It's a great way to change up your usual chicken routine, and it's perfect for a special occasion. So next time you're looking for something new to try, give chicken with chocolate a try. You won't be disappointed.
