Mole is a thick and rich sauce from Mexico. Some moles use piquant sun-dried chiles, spices and unsweetened chocolate to form complex flavors.

Slow Cooker Mole Chicken

Combine black beans, broth, chipotles, tortilla chips, almonds, garlic, chili powder and cinnamon in a food processor. Cover and press until smooth. 

Transfer black bean mixture to 3-1/2 or 4-quart slow cooker. Add chicken. Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours. Add chocolate and stir until chocolate melts. Season with salt, to taste.

Serve chicken and mole sauce over rice. Garnish as desired.
