Expert Tips

* Adding chocolate chips to this chicken mixture is reminiscent of Mexican mole (MOH-lay) sauce, a spicy combination of onions, garlic, chiles and a small amount of Mexican chocolate.

These are very unusual and good. I put a few extra chocolate chips in the recipe and used sliced kraft mexican cheese. Great Meal.
