Three Moles with Chicken

Three Moles with Chicken: Mole Negro, Mole Rojo and Mole Verde

{Anthony}: "On the outside, you have a mole negro colored with activated charcoal. On the inside, you'll have a mole rojo with the yellow beets and guajillo. And then the last one is the mole verde that has chlorophyll as well." During prep: "I'm just blending up this for my mole negro. This is the first time to do three moles in one challenge. Right now, in my restaurant, I have a mole on the menu. Normally everywhere I work, depending on the weather and season, I normally have a mole on. But this is the first time to do three." Tom to Anthony during prep: "One mole is an aggressive accomplishment."

Amira (guest judge): "I think Anthony did a good job. It looks great and is really kind of visually stunning. I'm from Mexico and this is like my childhood. I love how he plated it. Very tasty. Flavors are great." Tom: "Really flavorful. The darkest one maybe a little sweet on the chocolate, but when you mix it in with the others, it actually worked really nicely." Dish was among the top three of the elimination.
