TURKEY MOLE POBLANO
Moles come in various flavors and ingredients, with chili peppers as the common factor. However, the classic mole version is the variety called mole poblano, which is a dark red or brown sauce served over meat. This is a version that works great to help use up that extra turkey on Thanksgiving. We also make this every year for our Christmas dinner with my husbands family. Sprinkle sesame seeds over mole if desired. Garnish with onions and limes. Serve with rice on the sides and tostadas or tortillas.

Steps:
- Heat about 3 cups water in a microwave-safe bowl for 3 minutes.
- Heat a griddle or comal over medium heat. Toast pasilla chiles, guajillo chiles, ancho chiles, cascabel chile, and morita chile for about 1 minute. Turn chiles over and toast until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove stems and seeds. Place chiles in the bowl of water; cover and let soak, 10 to 15 minutes.

Tips:
- Choose ripe poblano peppers: Look for peppers that are dark green and firm, with no blemishes or bruises.
- Roast the poblano peppers before using them: Roasting brings out their smoky, slightly sweet flavor. To roast the peppers, place them on a baking sheet and broil them in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the skins are blackened. Then, place the peppers in a paper bag and let them steam for 10 minutes. Once they're cool enough to handle, remove the skins and seeds.
- Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use for the stew will make a big difference in the final flavor. Use a good-quality chicken or vegetable broth, or make your own using turkey bones or roasted vegetables.
- Don't overcook the turkey: Turkey can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook the turkey until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Serve the stew with your favorite sides: This stew is delicious served with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or guacamole to each bowl.
Conclusion:
This turkey and poblano red-eye stew is a delicious and hearty meal that's perfect for a cold night. The combination of turkey, poblano peppers, and red-eye gravy is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook turkey, give this stew a try.
