i made this yet again, this time i had to leave out the beer but used chicken stock instead, and i used finger chili peppers as the hot pepper added to the sauce. extra cinnamon & cocoa this time, as well. i think that this could be spicier, so i add my own hotness to the dish. but this is a great base recipe to follow. thanks.

Nothing great about this recipe. It was ok, we ate it, but won't make it again. Sorry Rachel...

I am only giving this recipe a "fair" rating, because I think it can be good, but once we added the unsweetened cocoa powder, it got extremely bitter. I know the recipe calls for Mexican unsweetened cocoa powder, but Rachel mentioned you could use regular unsweetened. I tasted the chicken after it was done poaching in the beer(we used a Corona and water, and it was very tasty. Next time, I think we will add a SMALL amount of cocoa powder, more nutmeg and other spices, and adjust from there. Otherwise, this recipe probably turns out really well. The side dish of the red chard and rice was excellent!

i really liked this recipe. I had to alter a couple of ingredients due to availability at my supermarket, and i used a whole rotisserie chicken instead of poaching my own, but i think this was pretty close to the taste Rachel was going for. It makes a TON so be prepared to eat.

I haven't tried this recipe yet but it looks pretty tasty & simple! In response to the beer question--you should be able to easily substitute another type of beer. I would go for something light in flavor (budweiser, etc. since mexican beers are typically pretty light.

It was delicious!! I love to cook so I didn't think it was to much work. I used the left over liquid from the chicken and the liquid from the ancho chilis and made up the extra liquid with water to cook my red chard and rice dish, it was very tasty! I used the small flour tortillas instead of the corn. This receipe is definitely a keeper!

I LOVE mole, but it's just too much work to make. This is quick, easy, tasty, and healthy. Very flavorful, with a nice sweet, spicy kick.

Very tasty, earthy and different from most common dishes. My family enjoyed it very much with corn chips, corn and flour tortillas. I liked cooking with the ancho chiles and the various spices.

I forgot the bay leaves but added a handful of fresh cilantro to the processor. This was delicious.
