Ingredients

1 1/4 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2 to 3 breasts)
4 cups ow-sodium chicken stock (see notes if you prefer a thicker chili) (32 ounces)
2 cans reduced-sodium white beans such as white kidney beans, cannellini, or Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained 15 ounce
2 cans diced green chiles 4.5 ounce
2 cloves garlic minced
1 small yellow onion (or 1/2 large) finely diced
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Fresh lime wedges
For serving diced jalapeno, diced avocado, nonfat sour cream or plain Greek yogurt, shredded cheese, crushed tortilla chips

Instructions

Place chicken in the bottom of a 6-quart or larger slow cooker.
Top with the chicken broth, white beans, green chiles, garlic, onion, cumin, oregano, salt, and cayenne. Stir to combine. Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours or high for 2 to 4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken breasts to a plate. Once cool enough to handle, shred and set aside.
With an immersion blender, puree a portion of the chili to thicken it, leaving some of the beans whole. (If you don't have an immersion blender, you can instead transfer a few ladlefuls of the chili to a food processor or blender and pulse roughly, then return back into the chili.)
Stir in the shredded chicken and cilantro. Portion into bowls and top with a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Add any other desired toppings and enjoy.
