The oil would have been chicken fat from the broth I added. Blending the chilies was my biggest hurtle. As I was draining the chilies I was thinking that I should save the soak water for something . . . a little in the blender would have smoothed out the result no doubt. After I sieved the sauce it actually looked just like the sauce in your picture.
Anyway, thanks for the recipe, JR. I wanted to try it & I did. I am sure that with refinement I could get a better result.
Now I have a whole mess of chilies to play with.
