This was an awesome meal. Its hard to believe I was cooking for the first time. All the stepa were easy to follow an the aftermath was great!
This mole was so tasty and easy to prepare. I made it for my mom and boyfriend and they ate it up! I served it with mexican style corn bread and they went great together. I also added red and yellow peppers just to throw in some extra veggies. It turned out wonderful especially for me, someone who has never cooked pork before! It came out really juicy and tender. I'll definitely be saving this to my favorites!
A new favorite! I am so glad that I tried out this recipe. It took no time at all to make, and turned out a delicious, hearty meal. This was my first time making mole, and I was so pleased with the results. I tweaked the recipe a tad based on the prior reviews and my kids' tastes: I used only 1 tsp. of chili powder and 1 can of Hunt's Diced Tomatoes instead of 2 cans of Ro*Tel. I also used about 1/8 cup of chocolate morsels and added a clove of garlic. We ate the mole with Mexican rice. Looking forward to leftovers tonight!!
This was a great recipe for a fast, flavorful mole. Pork tenderloin cooks up quickly and is always nice and tender. We used our pork mole as a basis for a taco night in our house. I shredded some lettuce, diced some tomatoes and topped them off with a little queso fresco for a fun twist on the standard taco. I also grilled some yellow plantains to go with them. Like one of my other Shared Tastes Panel reviewers I felt that I could have lived with a little less chocolate and will be making that adjustment the next time I make this.
Delicious! ! This dish was very quick and easy, making it stress free for the for the easy for the ' slice and dice rookie' who with doesn't have much time for prep. As for the actual ingredients, I made a couple of changes. I omitted the cinnamon (not fond of it in meat) and added one canned, pureed chipotle pepper, as my family likes a smoky flavor in a pork mole. We served the mole in tortilla wraps. Added a soft dollop of sour cream. Next time, perhaps I'll slightly reduce the amount of chocolate although it was still very tasty as is. So when you only have about 40 minutes to prepare on a chilly spring evening, definitely give this one a try - you won't be disappointed! Yes, it took a little longer than recipe states, as I doubled the meat for company. I also took the time to remove the silver skin on the pork and cut it into 1/2 inch chunks as I find that much more appealing than larger bites. Everyone agreed this dish was a keeper.
Love this recipe! Easy to make and delicious. Goes very nice with avocado salad and Mexican rice. Delicioso!
