DIRECTIONS

- While chicken is marinating: In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, serrano and pasilla peppers. Saute for 5 minutes.
- Add chili powder, cinnamon, oregano and cumin. Stir for 1 minute.
- Add A.1. Original Sauce, tomato sauce and chicken broth to pan. Bring to a boil, and add chocolate chips.
- Stir well and reduce heat to medium-low. Let sauce simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
