Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 Roma tomatoes
4 guajillo chile peppers, stemmed and seeded
⅓ large onion
1 stalk celery
1 carrot, peeled
1 clove garlic
1 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
2 pounds chicken breasts
3 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place tomatoes, 2 guajillo peppers, onion, celery, carrot, and garlic into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Blend vegetable mixture, chicken stock, remaining guajillo peppers, and chicken bouillon together in a blender or food processor until sauce is smooth.
  • Place chicken in a baking dish and pour sauce over and around chicken to cover completely. Top with bay leaves.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, stirring sauce every 20 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
