This is very easy to prepare and even the kids like it! COOKS NOTES: Look for Dona Maria Mole. It is in a jar with the Mexican foods. Serve with sour cream, cilantro, salsa and avocado. Please note: this is an adopted recipe and I hope to make it soonest. If you make it before I do, I would appreciate feedback, Thanks ! ZWT REGION: Mexico.

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/2 cup mole, poblano paste
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
nonstick cooking spray
8 corn tortillas
2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese or monterey jack cheese

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a saucepan over medium high heat, stir together mole paste and about half of the broth.
2
Once mixture is smooth, stir in remaining broth and chicken. Heat until simmering.
3
Spray a 9-inch pie plate with non-stick cooking spray. Place two tortillas, overlapping, on bottom of pie plate. (Tortillas won't completely cover the bottom; that's OK.).
4
Top with 1/4 of the chicken and sauce and 1/4 of the cheese. Continue layering, ending with sauce and cheese.
5
Bake about 25 minutes, until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbling. Cut in wedges to serve.

I used my own mole sauce for this recipe. I did mix the shredded chicken with about 1/2c sour cream and about 1/2c shredded cheddar for moistness and flavor. Followed your recipe from there. Very good. Thanks.

Great idea! I added a layer of cooked rice and some chopped onion to make it go a little farther. Since I added the rice I put a little more broth into the mole (only 1/4 cup) to thin it out a little. I cooked it in my crock pot on low for 3 hours. I think the next time I make it I might add a layer of black beans as well and garnish with cilantro and sour cream. So yummy! I took it to a potluck at my church and everyone raved about it- so thanks for the recipe!!

This was very very good! I could not find a mole paste without hydrogenated fat, so I used a mole sauce and omitted the added broth. It was a 16.5 ounce jar, and was plenty of liquid for the recipe. I have to imagine this dish depends largely on how yummy the mole you get is, and the one I got was really good (Archer Farms brand from Target). I used one roasted turkey breast in this, shredded jack just on top, and baked it in a lasagna pan. I think the corn tortillas are a must in this. Nonfat sour cream made for a great topping. Thanks for the very yummy and easy recipe, Kiwi!

Very good. I found this to be a little dry so the second time I made it I added more liquid. I used flour shells, I also added some hot pepper cheese slices. That gave it a little bite and was so good.
