Ingredients: 1 batch quick mole sauce; 4 cups (about 2 pounds) diced or shredded cooked chicken; 8-10 small flour or corn tortillas; 2 avocados, diced; 2 fresh limes, cut into wedges; toppings: chopped fresh cilantro, diced red or white onions, sliced radishes, and/or crumbled cotija cheese

These Mole Chicken Tacos are made with my favorite shortcut 20-minute mole sauce, and they are full of the best rich and zesty flavors!  Feel free to swap roasted cauliflower for the chicken to make them vegetarian/vegan if you prefer.

Cook the mole sauce

Prepare the mole sauce according to recipe instructions.

Toss the chicken. 

Once the mole sauce is ready to go, reserve 1 cup of the sauce to the side for later.  Then add the remainder of the sauce to a large mixing bowl with the chicken, and toss the chicken until it is evenly coated.

Assemble the tacos.  

Fill the tortillas with a generous scoop of the chicken, drizzle with a spoonful of extra mole sauce, top with avocado, a squeeze of fresh lime juice, and whatever other toppings sound good to you.

Serve.  

Then serve and enjoy while the tacos are warm!

I made these with the mole sauce and they were great! A bit different then what I normally make! Everyone loved them! Thanks a lot!!!

Holy mole indeed! This was just fabulous. I love mole, and I was thrilled that this turned out so great. Even my husband, who was making "that face" (as in, "I don't think I'll like that"), had 2 helpings, and said it was amazing. I wanted to make slaw but my cabbage was sad, so I thinly sliced radishes and carrot, and chopped some onion. I then put those things in some white vinegar, water, and a little sugar to make a pickle-y condiment to put on the tacos. SO GOOD. Thanks for easy delicious recipes, and for making me look like a kitchen goddess! I also appreciate you offering options to customize recipes, and that they are actually fairly forgiving of improvisation. Bravo!

Our family is obsessed with this mole sauce! We alternate between using it in these tacos and burrito bowls and everyone always loves it.
