Instructions
  1. Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot. Add diced onion, minced garlic, white beans, corn, and diced green chilies around the chicken.
  2. Pour chicken broth over everything, then add cumin, oregano, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir gently to combine spices.
  3. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours, until chicken is tender and easily shredded.
  4. Remove chicken from crockpot and shred using two forks. Return shredded chicken to the pot.
  5. Stir in sour cream and shredded cheese until well combined and creamy.
  6. Let cook for another 15-20 minutes to heat through. Serve hot with fresh cilantro and additional toppings if desired.
