Instructions
Roast the serrano peppers until charred- once charred, remove skin and rough chop. Then, season chicken with salt and pepper.

Add diced yellow onion, chopped Serrano, and garlic to pot and lightly caramelize. Then, add ½ jar MOLÈ sauce & 2 cups (480 ml) chicken stock. Stir thoroughly to combine.
Return chicken to pot, submerging in sauce. Add more stock if needed.
Cover and Place in a preheated oven at 325°F or simmer on a stove for 45 minutes.
Remove the pot from the oven. Remove the chicken and let rest.
