Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat, 30 seconds per side, until pliable.

  2. Step 2

    Whisk mole paste with chicken broth in a small bowl until smooth. Stir in diced onion.

  3. Step 3

    Spread a thin layer of mole sauce on the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Dip each tortilla in sauce, fill with shredded chicken, roll, and arrange seam-side down.

  4. Step 4

    Pour remaining mole sauce evenly over rolled tortillas. Sprinkle crumbly cheese on top.

  5. Step 5

    Bake uncovered until sauce bubbles at edges and cheese softens, about 12 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot with fresh chopped fruit and orange juice alongside.
