  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan).
  2. Cut the tortilla wrap into thin strips and place them on a baking tray. Lightly brush with a small amount of olive oil and bake for 5-7 minutes or until crispy. Set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  4. Finely chop the onion and garlic. Add them to the pot and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are soft and translucent.
  5. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the pot. Cook until the chicken is browned on all sides, approximately 5 minutes.
  6. Add the tomato passata, chicken stock, cumin, chilli powder, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine.
  7. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  8. Add the frozen sweetcorn and black beans. Continue to simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until everything is heated through.
  9. Pour the soup into a bowl and top with the crispy tortilla strips.
  10. If using, add a squeeze of lime and sprinkle with fresh coriander for garnish.
