Chicken Chocolate Mole

2 lbs chicken (I like to buy boneless chicken breasts from a local farm when I can)
4 tablespoons olive oil (or healthy fat of choice), separated
1 med onion, diced
3 heads of garlic, minced
3 tablespoons Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate chocolate chili rub; 1 tbsp reserved
2 ½ cups stewed tomatoes (I like to use canned tomatoes from our garden)
2 chipotle peppers, chopped, in 2 tbsp adobo sauce
½ cup raisins (I prefer golden raisins)
¼ cup nut or almond butter (I recommend Naturally Nutty peanut or almond butter)
½ cup Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate dark chocolate chunks
1 tsp cumin seed
1 cinnamon stick
1 tsp sea salt (or to taste)

In heavy bottom pot, cook onions in 2 tbsps olive oil (about 3 mins), add garlic and cook a few more minutes. In same pan, brown chicken in remaining olive oil. Dust with 2 tbsp Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate Chili rub while cooking.
Add stewed tomatoes, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, raisins, nut butter, Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate dark chocolate chunks, cumin seed, cinnamon stick and remaining Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate Chili Rub. Cook for 3 hours on 350, checking progress every hour.
Remove cinnamon stick and shred chicken with fork. Serve over blue corn chips, tortillas or over polenta. Top with sour cream, salsa or fresh cilantro. (6-8 large servings)
