Chicken with Chocolate Sauce (Chicken Mole)(Pollo En Chocolate Sauce)
Not sure about chicken served with chocolate sauce, but my curiosity wanted me to make it, and I did. It actually came out delicious. All the flavours worked so well. Definitely will be making it again soon!

Directions
In casserole, heat oil and cook garlic for a few moments to flavour oil; add chicken and brown.
Remove chicken. In remaining fat, cook onion, green pepper, pimento, and tomato over gentle heat for 10 minutes.
To onion mixture, add chili powder, blending well.
Add broth, almonds, raisins, seasonings, and rind; simmer, covered, 30 minutes longer.
Add chocolate, stirring until melted.
Replace chicken, spooning sauce over.
Bake, covered, at 350℉ (180℃) for 1 hour, or until chicken is tender.
Warm rum, ignite it, and pour over contents of casserole; allow to stand for a few minutes.
