4 chicken breast halves

Green Mole Sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1 canned green chile
1/3 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup shelled sunflower seeds
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons lime juice

Skin and bone chicken breast halves. Set aside.

Preheat broiler. Lightly grease broiler-pan rack.

Prepare green mole sauce: Heat oil in medium skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and cumin; cook until onion is tender, 3 minutes. Place in food processor or blender along with chili, cilantro, parsley, sunflower seeds, broth, and water. Whirl until pureed (mixture will be slightly grainy). Return mixture to skillet; simmer, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes or until thickened. Stir in lime juice. Broil chicken 6 inches from heat for 3 minutes on each side or just until cooked through. Top with Green Mole Sauce.
