The flavors got washed out in the slow-cooker (not really the recipe's fault, more just a known slow-cooker issue). I halved the chiles, and it was mellow enough to serve the kids. There was a lot of liquid by the end of cooking, so I shredded the chicken to absorb more of the sauce, and served it over rice. Rather than go through that slightly labor-of-love process, in this version you blend all the sauce ingredients and let the slow cooker bring out and marry the flavors. For some reason, pretty much all slow cooker chicken mole recipes I found used tomatoes yet none of the more traditional recipes did.
