  I couldn't find Chipotle Paste but I found Dried Chipotle chillies so I made my own paste. I rehydrated the dried chilies, chopped them up and and threw them in my mortar with some vinegar, tomato paste, cumin and coriander. Tasty times.

  Really lovely and easy recipe. I used chipotle sauce instead of paste and marinated the red onion slightly before serving.

  This was really simple and tasted very good. I added some extra chilli, red pepper and celery, which needed using up. Will definatly do again as the chipotle paste is gorgeous.

  Asda have recently started selling Discovery's chipotle paste- I got it from there and it's great! Does the job well.

  I usually love your recipes but not sure what I did wrong, just found this a bit watery, insipid and quite boring! Easy to make and such a shame, as liked the flavour just not the outcome! I made my own paste as found dried Chipotle in Tesco's soaked then passed through a sieve!

  This is a nice recipe but no way would that amount of sauce do four chicken breasts. I made the full amount of sauce and used two chicken breasts and it was only just enough for that really. Very tasty though (needs good seasoning) and I served mine with rice with sour cream and grated cheese on top. I will also try a slightly longer cooking time when I try it again as the chicken could have been more tender.

  I couldn�t find chipotle paste anywhere locally, but I did find some dried chipotle chillies from my local Tesco�s. I used three chillies, cut the stalks off and soaked them in a cup of hot water for 20 minutes. I then put the chillies and soaking liquid into my food processor and gave them a good mix. The chillies were hard to break down, so I had to remove them, chop them up by hand and throw them back in. The �chipotle water� was potent! I took a quick sniff, and it was very strong! I poured the liquid into my stew and it was perfect!!! I�m sure the paste will be more convenient, but it is surely packed full of additives, preservatives etc. I used just the dried chillies and water�..and it was work the time and effort. As I said, I bought the dried chillies from Tesco�s. They were rather pricey, but they are quite easily bought on line for the half the price! Just do a quick internet search and you�ll find them!

  Absolutely delicious! Padded it out a bit with sliced green and red peppers and a tin of red kidney beans. Also, used half a jar of the chipotle paste and 2 tins tomatoes. Everybody loved it!

  This was really yummy, I couldn't get the paste so I added a tsp of chilli powder and a tsp of smoked paprika and it worked really well and served it with wraps and sour cream.

  Too tomatoey for some tastes. The chicken breasts I used were too big, and seemed to take forever to cook through. Wont be rushing to do this again

  I basically made a combination of this and this: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/3479/mexican-chilli-chicken so added red pepper, smoked paprika & chilli powder & chicken stock rather than chipotle paste, i also doubled the canned tomatoes and used turkey (cheaper and lower fat) - so basically changed the recipe completely but it was devine... oh, and i put in a can of black beans.... heaven.

  Found the Chipotle paste in Asda for those that can't find it. I was looking forward to this recipe but found it quite uninspiring to be honest. There was no sauce left after cooking either so although the chicken was tender, the overall texture was fairly dry (Would be fine for inside wraps, but not for rice, wedges etc. Will be looking for other recipes to use the paste with as doubt I'll be making this one again. :-(
