Ingredients
- ½ a rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 2 14-oz cans chicken broth
- 1 can white beans (cannellini)
- 2 cans green salsa
- 2 limes
- Sour cream + tortilla chips
Bonus
- Red onion
- Garlic

- Thinly slice a red onion and gently saute it in the olive oil.
- Thinly slice garlic, and add it to the onion. Season.
- Toss in the beans, and mix. Season. Roughly stir, breaking some of the beans just a bit.
- Empty the salsa and cook over medium-high heat, then add the chicken and cumin.
- Once it’s got a bit of flavor, add the broth, bring to a boil, lower heat to a simmer, and cook for 10 minutes, or until it’s time to eat, stirring occasionally.
