• While the chicken is cooking remove the skin from the chickpeas. Place the drained chickpeas in a deep bowl, add enough water to cover the beans at least by 2 inches. Using your hands, gently rub the beans in between your palms. The skins will float to the top, pour off the skins and add more water, repeat until you no longer see any remaining skin. *Note: If you'd like to skip this step sub the chickpeas with Cannellini beans or Great Northern Beans.
• Add in half the beans to the chicken stock. Using your immersion blender puree the beans. The stock should thicken. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Add in the remaining whole beans, corn and the shredded chicken.
• Bring back to a boil then turn down to a simmer and cook for another 15 min or until the soup is heated through. Serve with tortilla chips, lime wedges, cotija and avocado if you'd like.
