In
a 6 quart pot, combine the chicken with the chicken broth. Cook
the chicken with the broth, until the chicken is done enough
to shred up. Remove the chicken from the broth and skim off
any chicken fat. Shred the chicken and return to the pot. Add
3 cups of water to broth. In a pan, sauté the chopped
onions until lightly brown (approx. 8 minutes) and add the chopped
garlic to sauté with the onions for about 1 minute. Now
add the onions and garlic to the pot with the chicken. Add the
chopped chilies, cumin, oregano, cinnamon, and white beans to
the pot. Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer
for 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Add salt and Tabasco to taste.
Serve
piping hot with a handful of grated cheese over the chili. You
could add sour cream, salsa or lime wedges as garnish. Serves
6 to 8.
