Preparation

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
Wash and dry all produce.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
To a large bowl, add chicken, half the Tex-Mex paste, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) chipotle powder and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. (TIP: If you like extra kick, add a little more chipotle powder!)
On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange chicken.
Roast chicken in the middle of the oven for 12-14 min, flipping halfway through, until cooked through.**
Using 2 forks, shred chicken into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside.

Meanwhile, peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices.
Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices.
Remove and discard outer layer of iceberg lettuce. Remove stem and cut half the lettuce into thin strips (use all the lettuce for 4 servings).
Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
To a medium bowl, add sour cream, lime zest, 2 tsp (4 tsp) lime juice and 2 tsp (4 tsp) water. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then half the onions. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until softened.
Add beans with their liquid. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until liquid is slightly reduced.
Remove from heat. Transfer to another medium bowl.
Using a fork or potato masher, coarsely mash beans. Season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
Carefully wipe the pan clean.

Meanwhile, on another parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange tortillas in a single layer. Using a fork, prick both sides of each tortilla several times.
Brush both sides of tortillas with 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil.
Bake in the middle of the oven for 8-10 min, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.

Reheat the same pan (from step 3) over medium. Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers and remaining onions. Season with salt and pepper.
Cook for 6-8 min, stirring occasionally, until very tender.
Add tomato sauce base and remaining Tex-Mex paste.
Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
Add shredded chicken, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) warm water.
Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until well combined.
