Kraft Kitchen Tips!

Variation - Chicken Mexicana

Prepare as directed, substituting 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2-inch thickness, for the pork chops.

Special Extra

For added flavour, sprinkle 1 tsp. ground cumin or chili powder evenly over the chops before browning.

Food Facts

Using unsweetened cocoa in this sauce imparts the flavour of a traditional Mexican mole sauce. The chocolate contributes a rich flavour without adding sweetness.
