4 dried ancho chiles
6 dried guajillo chiles
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons minced onion, divided
2 1/4 tablespoons minced garlic, divided
Salt
Sugar
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
Pinch ground cloves
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 pork tenderloins, about 1 to 1 1/4-pounds each
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3/4 cup chicken broth or stock
3/4 cup heavy cream
1-ounce bittersweet chocolate, chopped

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and toast the chiles, turning frequently, until very pliable and soft; do not allow to char. Remove from the skillet and transfer to a plate. Remove the stems and seeds and place in a saucepan. Add enough hot water to just cover and bring to a boil. Cover the pan, remove from the heat and allow chiles to soak until very soft and plumped, about 20 minutes. Strain in a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and reserve soaking liquid separately.
