Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken to a plate; set aside. In the same pan, fry the onions with a pinch of salt for 5-7 minutes until charred on all sides. Reduce the heat to low, then add the chipotle seasoning; stir fry for 1 minute. Add the chilli paste and coriander stalks; cook for 1 minute.
Tip the peppers and tomtoes into the casserole dish, dish, breaking the tomatoes up with a wooden spoon. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and return the chicken to the casserole; cook for a further 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, the juices run clear and no pink meat remains. Stir the chocolate through the sauce until melted; season. Divide the rice and the stew among 4 plates and scatter the remaining coriander leaves on top.
