Recipe tips

Method

To make the chicken, preheat the air fryer to 180C.
Mix the chipotle paste and lime juice in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken fillets and mix well to coat. Spray with the oil and air-fry for 12 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. You'll know the chicken is completely cooked when the juices run clear with no trace of pink when the thickest part is pierced with a skewer.
Remove from the air fryer and leave to rest while you make the tortilla crisps. Leave the air fryer on at 180C.
To make the tortilla crisps, add the tortilla triangles to the air fryer, stirring into all the juices left over from the chicken. Sprinkle over some salt and the paprika and spray with the oil. Shake to coat and then air-fry for 4 minutes.
To serve, slice the chicken and divide between two bowls. Add half of the tortilla crisps, black beans, avocado, jalapeños and lettuce (if using) to each bowl. Top with the soured cream, coriander and lime halves.
