How to make it
1
Preheat oven 425°F.

Into large high-sided skillet set over medium heat, add oil. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes or until starting to soften. Stir in chipotle, broth, mole paste and tomato paste; bring to a boil.

Stir in chicken, salt and pepper; reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken is tender and cooked through. Stir in chocolate. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 8 minutes or until chocolate has melted and sauce is thickened to a gravy consistency.

Arrange half the SANTITAS® Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips on foil-lined baking sheet. Scatter with half the cheddar, half the chicken mole and half the onion. Repeat layers one more time.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until cheddar has melted.
