Enchilada & Maduros

As a late lunch/early dinner, my wife and I decided to have Mexican food delivered.

I ordered the "Enchilada de Mole" with yellow rice and refried beans topped with cheese, with a side of maduros (sweet plantains). See photo below.

The enchilada is actually two corn tortillas filled with shredded, spiced chicken and topped with mole sauce and melted cheese. Mole (pronounced "mo-lay") is a spicy, sweet sauce made with chili peppers and chocolate. Whenever mole is on the menu of a Mexican restaurant, I will order it. While I once purchased a jar of it at a supermarket, I would like to attempt making a homemade version. I absolutely LOVE it.

My wife ordered the Chimichanga (chicken) with yellow rice and refried beans.

UPDATE: You know, I think my enchilada was exclusively with refried beans. I could not distinguish any chicken.
