We have the chile ancho, and we have the chile guajillo. And there's a couple of other dried chilies, too, in the mole. I love chicken mole, but I'm not sure what to do with this sauce. Do I just pour it over the chicken and bake? The only directions say to add chicken broth or bouillon to it, but there are no amounts listed.
