   2      qts           chicken stock
   3                    corn tortillas
   3      tablespoons   raisins
   2      oz            unsweetened chocolate
     1/4  cup           almonds -- slivered
     1/2                onion -- quartered
   1      medium        green pepper -- roughly chopped
   1      large         tomato -- quartered
   2                    garlic cloves -- peeled
   2      tablespoons   caribe chile -- crushed
   2      tablespoons   cinnamon -- ground
                        steamed rice

Arrange chicken in a large pot. Add stock and cook until tender but 
not falling apart, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Lift chicken out of stock and 
cool slightly. Reserve stock. Process tortillas, raisins, chocolate, 
almonds, onion, bell pepper, tomato and garlic in food processor or 
blender until finely ground. Add enough stock to make a thick gravy- 
like sauce. Add crushed chile and cinnamon. Pour sauce into large pot.
 Add chicken pieces and simmer 30 minutes. If moisture becomes too 
dry, add more stock. Serve hot with rice.
