White Chicken Chili

OOPS - I was eating leftovers of this and it occurred to me that I missed 2 very important ingredients! 
2tsp cumin
1tsp oregano

I love any kind of chili and I don't make white chili very often, but it always turns out good! 

2 chicken breasts
5 scallions, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 can diced green chilis
6c chicken stock
2 can cannelinni beans, drained and rinsed

I salted and peppered the chicken and browned, in olive oil, on both sides in a heavy bottom pot.  When they were browned, I took them out and sauteed the scallions and garlic for a few minutes.  Once they had softened, I added the green chilis and stock, stirring up the brown bits on the bottom.  Then I added the chicken and simmered for about 15 minutes.  My breasts were still a little frozen in the middle when I browned them, so completely thawed chicken would probably only take 10 minutes.  Once the chicken was cooked through, I took them out and added the beans.  While the beans were simmering, I shredded the chicken.  Then I took out about 2c of beans and veggies and pureed them with my immersion blender.  I added the pureed beans and chicken back in and we ate!  Yummy!
