to 2 medium jalapeño chiles, seeded, finely chopped

cloves garlic, finely chopped

tablespoon chili powder

1/2

teaspoon salt

1/4

teaspoon pepper

oz semisweet baking chocolate

can (28 oz) or 2 cans (14.5 oz each) Muir Glen® organic fire roasted crushed tomatoes, undrained

can (8 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated crescent dinner rolls

tablespoon cornmeal

tablespoon chopped cilantro, if desired

In 4-quart Dutch oven, cook turkey, chiles and garlic over medium heat 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until turkey is no longer pink.
Stir in chili powder, salt, pepper, chocolate, tomatoes and beans. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, heat oven to 375°F. Lightly spray 12x8-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Unroll dough and separate into 2 long rectangles; firmly press perforations to seal. Sprinkle both sides with cornmeal, gently pressing in with palm of hand. Spoon chili mixture into baking dish. Place dough rectangles over chili, leaving center open for steam to escape.
Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle with cilantro.

Mole (pronounced MOH-lay) refers to a rich, dark sauce that includes onion, garlic, salt, several varieties of chiles and a small amount of chocolate.

Tip

If you have some Mexican chocolate, you can use it in this sauce, or use 1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips in place of the 2 oz semisweet baking chocolate.
