  • Remove the stems and seeds from the chiles (I suggest using gloves).
  • Heat the lard in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the chiles and brown them until they release their fragrance, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn them.
  • Remove the chiles and place them in a large bowl.
  • Add the onion along with the garlic and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the skillet and place in the same bowl with the chiles.
  • Cut the tortillas and lightly toast them in the skillet for about 3 minutes. Remove and add to the bowl.
  • If necessary, melt a little more lard in the skillet.
  • Add the plantain and brown for 5 minutes. Remove and add to the bowl.
  • Place the peanuts and almonds in the skillet and let them cook until they release their aroma, about 1 minute.
  • Sprinkle the sesame seeds and continue cooking until lightly browned, 15 to 30 seconds. Remove and place in the bowl.
  • Heat the tomatoes in the skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add the chocolate in pieces until melted. Pour over the bowl with the chili mixture. Stir well.
  • Blend the ingredients in small batches, adding the necessary water to achieve a smooth sauce.
  • Place the whole chicken in a large pot. Pour the sauce over the chicken.
  • Cover and cook over medium-low heat until the chicken meat falls off the bones, about 2 to 3 hours.
