You'll need:
- 2 Ancho Chiles
- Olive oil (~3 tbsp)
- 1 medium onion, minced
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves
- 1 oz dark chocolate, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced or put through a garlic press
- 2 c chicken broth
- 2 cup diced tomatoes (or 1 can)
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds
- 1/4 c tahini
- ~1 lbs chicken breasts, skin/bones removed. If large, slice to 1/2-3/4" thick
To do:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place chiles on a baking sheet and bake for 5-7 minutes, until puffed
- Remove chiles to cool, leave oven on.
- When chiles are cool, break into small pieces after removing stem and seeds
- Heat oil in skillet on medium head until shimmering
- Add onion and saute until soft, 5-7 minutes
- Add chile pieces, cinnamon, cloves, and chocolate and cook until chocolate is bubbly, about 2 mins
- Add garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds
- Add in broth, tomatoes,raisins, sesame seeds, and tahini and cook for 10 minutes stirring occasionally
- Transfer to a blender or food processor and process until smooth, about 20-30 seconds
- You can let the sauce cool and keep it in the fridge at this point for a few days
- Set oven to 400 degrees
- Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper
- Arrange chicken in the bottom of a shallow baking dish
- Pour sauce over the chicken, turning the pieces to make sure they are coated.
- Bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes
- Remove chicken from oven and tent with foil, let rest for 5-10 minutes
- Serve and enjoy
