Nothing's better for warming up in winter than a hearty soup. In this Chipotle Chicken, Spiced Sweet Potato and Bean Soup, the main flavour comes from chipotle, full of rich, smoky and fruity flavours with a kick from the chipotle chillies.

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Drain the sweetcorn in a sieve. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Halve the green pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
Cut the sweet potato into small 1cm chunks (no need to peel) and pop them onto a large baking tray with the sliced pepper. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden and tender, 18-20 mins. Turn halfway through.
Meanwhile, melt the butter (see pantry for amount) in a large saucepan on medium heat.
Once hot, add the chicken and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Add the sweetcorn and fry until golden, 2-3 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat.
In the meantime, pop half the kidney beans and all their liquid into a medium bowl and mash with a potato masher.
Once the corn is golden, add the chipotle paste and garlic. Stir-fry for 1 min.
Stir in the passata, vegetable stock paste, kidney beans (whole and mashed), sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).
Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 5-7 mins. Stir occasionally. IMPORTANT: Cook so there's no pink in the middle of the chicken.
While everything cooks, grate the cheese.
Once roasted, stir the sweet potato and sliced pepper through the soup. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from the heat.
Share your chipotle sweet potato soup between your bowls. Drizzle with the soured cream and gently swirl it into the soup if you'd like.
Sprinkle over the cheese to finish and serve the tortilla chips alongside.
Enjoy!
