While roasting, sweat leeks with a little oil and finely chop up rest of vegetables slowly adding to leeks. Add tin of chopped tomatoes, soup bean mix and any seasoning (i added ginger, and chilli as i had a cold) and some chicken/vegetable stock.

Remove chicken from oven, add onions and garlic to vegetable pot, and quickly blitz on hand processor to thickness (i left mine fairly chunky). when chicken is cool enough to handle, remove skin and add small strips of meet to pot and cook for another 40 mins, until the juices and the soup has developed and thickened.
