opisí

Opisí is a traditional Mexican dish originating from the state of Oaxaca. It is a type of mole, a rich and complex sauce made from a blend of chiles, spices, and sometimes chocolate. The term "opisí" specifically refers to a mole made with the seeds of the chile piquin, a small, red chile native to Oaxaca. The dish is typically served over chicken, but can also be made with turkey or other meats. The sauce is known for its deep red color and its unique blend of flavors, which include a mix of sweet, spicy, and earthy notes. Opisí is often considered one of the most flavorful and complex moles, and is a staple in Oaxacan cuisine. It is typically served with rice and beans, and is often accompanied by a side of pickled onions. The dish is a testament to the rich culinary heritage of Mexico, and is enjoyed both in Oaxaca and throughout the country.
