Step by step

1
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2
In a small bowl, stir together the chili powder, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper. Rub all over the chicken breasts. Place them in a parchment bag with the onion, sweet red pepper, lime juice, beer or chicken broth, and chipotle puree.
3
Fold the bag up to close and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear. If you are using a meat thermometer, it should read 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part of the breast.
4
Remove the chicken breasts from the bag and set aside to cool.
5
In a food processor, blend together the black beans, garlic, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, oregano, oil, and cilantro. Add the water a bit at a time to loosen up the mixture. What you don't use, you can serve with tortilla chips as a dip.
6
Serve the warm shredded chicken with the bean paste and an assortment of toppings. I smeared the pitas with bean paste, then heaped it with chicken, lettuce, sweet peppers, cheddar cheese, avocado, sliced fresh tomato, cilantro, and sour cream mixed with a little more chipotle.
Recipe noteYou can buy chipotle peppers in cans in the Mexican food section at the store. I like the ones canned in adobo sauce but I never can use the whole thing. Instead, I puree the extra chipotles and portion them out into ice cube trays, and freeze them so that I can thaw and use them in the future. They add a lot of flavor to dishes.
