    Preparation Steps

    1

    Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a pot, then add the chicken and cook for 20 minutes, or until tender.

    2

    Remove the chicken from the broth and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, shred it with two forks.

    3

    Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the finely chopped onion and garlic for 3-4 minutes, until softened and fragrant.

    4

    Pour in the mole sauce and some of the chicken broth. Whisk until smooth, then simmer over low heat for 5-7 minutes.

    5

    Add the shredded chicken to the sauce, stir to combine, and cook for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    6

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a flame until slightly charred.

    7

    Fill the tortillas with the mole chicken mixture, then sprinkle with fresh cilantro and toasted sesame seeds.

    8

    Before serving, squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos to enhance the flavors.
