Well, errors or not, I made the Pollo al Chipotle and it was very
good. I think that you're right, the "consomme en polvo" probably
was intended for the other recipe so I didn't use it. I think the
chipotle chiles were strong enough to have masked much of its effect
anyway. I'm not sure that the recipe was prepared as intended
though. The onion wasn't perforated and roasted, but cut up and
lightly sauted with the garlic in a little oil. It also needed a
full cup of water to survive baking over even a low flame for an
hour. As my chipotle peppers were packed in adobo sauce I'll have
to try it again sometime using just chipotle peppers. Thanks for
the recipe.
