Crockpot Chicken Chili

1 1/4# chicken breasts
4 cups chicken stock
2 (15-ounce) cans white beans, rinsed and drained
2 (4.5-ounce) cans diced green chiles
3 cloves minced garlic
1 small onion, finely diced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Fresh lime wedges
For serving (the toppings add important flavor, so LOAD IT UP!): Diced jalapeno, diced avocado, plain Greek yogurt, shredded cheese, crushed baked tortilla chips.

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 4-6 hours or high for 2-4 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. (You can also transfer a few ladlefuls of the chili to a food processor and roughly blend, then stir the blended portion 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.
