CHICKEN MOLE

This was fairly easy and small enough for two people.  The ingredients surprised me and I wasn't so sure but decided to go out on a limb and give it a try.  I'm glad I did. I will make it again.

CHICKEN MOLE

Ingredients
3/4  cup quick-cooking rice
nonstick cooking spray
1  medium red and/or yellow sweet pepper, cut into bite-size pieces
1/2 of a small onion, cut into thin wedges
6  ounces cooked chicken, cut into bite-size strips
1 cup purchased salsa
1  tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2  teaspoon ground cumin

Preheat over medium heat.  Add sweet pepper and onoin to hot skillet.  Cook and stir for 3 to 5 minutes or until crisp-tender.  Add chicken, salsa, cocoa powder, and cumin to skillet.  Heat through, stirring gently.

  2. These all look so good that I will cook them just for me. The vegan next to me can just drool. ;)
