Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained (or about 2 cups)
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
2 cups chicken broth
1 chipotle chile, canned in adobo sauce, finely chopped
2 cups chopped cooked chicken breasts (about 1/2 pound)
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
sour cream, fresh chopped cilantro

Method

Place the first five ingredients into a large saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil. Cover the pan, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
Use a potato masher to partially crush the tomatoes and beans in the pan. Add the chopped chicken and stir it in, then cook for 2 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly heated.
Take the saucepan off the heat and mix in the olive oil. Ladle the soup into bowls and finish each serving with a topping of sour cream and fresh cilantro.
