Chipotle in adobo substitute? I'm making this
Chipotle Corn Soup with dinner tonight. The only chipotles in adobo that I could find, however, had wheat flour, which ikkyu2 cannot eat. What do I use instead?

I do have:
* Fire-roasted green chilis (canned)
* Green chilis (fresh -- no idea what these taste like; bought them on a whim)
* Smoked paprika
* Cayenne pepper
* Dried red pepper flakes
* Some other various dried peppers, I think
Thoughts? I was planning on just using the canned green chilis, but I'm worried it'll lose a lot not having smokiness because the corn is so sweet; I think I could get smokiness with cayenne and paprika, but I'm not sure that would taste ok with the green chilis?
And am I just totally overthinking this?
