Preparation steps

Rinse the chicken under cold running water, pat dry with paper towels and cut into bite-size pieces. Set aside.

In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute until tender, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and chicken pieces; cook, stirring constantly until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes.

Add bay leaf, chili powder, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, tomatoes, chicken broth, water, and tomato paste, stirring to blend. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer, stirring on occasion, for 35 to 40 minutes. Add beans and cook uncovered, for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, stirring 2 or 3 times.

Ladle chili into bowls, top with sour cream and garnish with cilantro, and shredded cheese. Season to taste with freshly cracked black pepper.
