Ingredients:
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup Guelaguetza Mole Coloradito paste
4 tablespoons red curry paste
3/4 pound carrots, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
1 medium onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 13.5-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk

Preparation:
• Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add Guelaguetza Mole Coloradito paste and curry paste and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add onion, carrots and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 10 minutes.
