Ingredients

    • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
    • 1 large onion, chopped
    • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1 3/4 lb), cut into 1-inch chunks
    • 2 tsp ancho chile powder
    • 2 tsp ground cumin
    • Salt and black pepper
    • 3 cans (14.5-oz size) white kidney or cannellini beans, drained (save 1/2 cup draining liquid) and rinsed
    • 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided
    • 1 tsp canned chipotle chile in adobo, seeded and minced
