Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season generously with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Remove chicken from pot and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Stir in cumin, chili powder, oregano, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  5. 5

    Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the diced green chilies, drained and rinsed cannellini beans, and corn.

  6. 6

    Return the browned chicken to the pot. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.

  7. 7

    Remove chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return shredded chicken to the pot.

  8. 8

    Stir in the cream cheese and lime juice until the cream cheese is melted and the chili is creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
