Instructions

Cook the Chicken
1

a) Preheat your oven to 200°C.
b) Halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces.
c) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat.
d) Once the oil is hot, add the diced chicken thigh and shallot. Season with salt and pepper. Fry until the chicken is golden brown all over and the shallot is soft, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

Bake the Tortillas
2

a) Meanwhile, cut each tortilla into 8 triangles (use scissors if easier).
b) Place on a large baking tray in a single layer and drizzle with oil. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary. Season with salt and pepper.
c) When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until lightly golden brown and crisp, 5-7 mins.

Start the Soup
3

a) While the tortilla chips bake, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Pop half the kidney beans and their liquid into a medium bowl, then mash with a potato masher.
b) Add the garlic and chipotle paste to the chicken pan and stir-fry for 1 min.
c) Stir in the whole and mashed beans, chicken stock paste, passata, sugar and water for the sauce (see ingredients for both amounts).
d) Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down slightly and simmer for 5-7 mins.

Chop and Grate
4

a) While the soup simmers, roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
b) Grate the Cheddar.

Finish Up
5

a) When the soup has finished cooking, remove from the heat. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
b) Add a splash of water if needed to loosen until the soup is your desired consistency.
c) Stir through half of the coriander.

Serve
6

a) Share the chipotle chicken soup between your bowls.
b) Drizzle with the soured cream and swirl in if you'd like.
c) Scatter the cheese and remaining coriander over the top to finish.
d) Serve with the tortilla chips alongside for dipping.
Enjoy!
