1. Begin by poaching the chicken. Heat the chicken stock to a gentle simmer then add the chicken thighs. Gently poach for 8 min.

3. Lift the chicken out of the stock with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add the beans to the pan with the vegetables and pour in the stock. Simmer on a low heat for 1 h or until the beans are cooked through – if you are using tinned beans, then you can cook for less time (around 30-40 min.)
4. Slice the chicken thighs into small strips, then add them into the pan with the beans.
5. Taste the chilli and season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lime juice.
6. Divide the chilli between bowls and top with fresh coriander, spring onions, sour cream and crushed tortilla chips.
