I was not a fan of this. I felt it was just missing something important. We ate it, didnt have to throw it out, but wouldnt make this again.

I too am a "mole novice." This was my second time preparing a mole sauce, and I liked this one better than the last (a different chef's recipe. I did switch the Mexican chocolate to unsweetened baking chocolate, because the last recipe called for that and I had some left over. I enjoyed this chicken very much-flavorful and looks nice with the sesame seeds. Unfortunately, my 9 year old son said not to make it again.

We found all the ingredients from a local Mexican grocery. My wife and I have never had mole sauce so weren't sure what to expect. It is an interesting combination of flavors but was a little too sweet for our liking (we prefer savory. If we made it again, we were thinking unsweetened dark baking chocolate might work. However, as mole novices we might be missing the point. The recipe was easy to follow and we enjoyed the show.

I found this recipe in Marcela's cookbook, the 'mole' pasilla sauce simple and so good! I always make a double batch and freeze some for another quick meal. This sauce is great over steak, pork chops, and shrimp too.

Cooked this with my daughter tonight. Absolutely delicious and easy to make. I may have used a touch too much Mexican oregano, and the pasillas were a little spicy for one of our guests, but overall, absolutely and perfectly delicious! We served it with calabacita squash, halved and simply roasted, and a salad of parsley, avacado, tomato, onion, jalapeno, and queso fresco, dressed with lemon juice and olive oil. Beautiful!
