Method
- Sweat the onion, garlic, and jalapeño in a misted pot, 4 minutes. Bloom the spices for 30 seconds.
- Add the whole chicken breasts, broth, and green chiles. Simmer covered 18 minutes, then shred the chicken right in the pot.
- Blend one cup of the beans with a ladle of the broth and stir it back in — that's the creaminess, no dairy involved.
- Add the remaining whole beans and simmer 5 minutes to marry.
- Finish with lime and cilantro. Squeeze more lime at the table than feels reasonable.
