Lazy White Bean Chicken Chili

Not guaranteed the tastiest but I like it for when I don't have chicken broth and when I want to do minimal work.

1.5 lbs chicken
1/2 cup onion, chopped
Few cloves minced garlic
4 cups water
1 tsp cumin
1.5 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
1 tsp chili powder
2 cans white beans (or a few cups home-cooked)

Throw chicken in the bottom of the crockpot.  Sauté onions and garlic until cooked, then put those over the chicken.  Pour in the water and spices.  Cook on low for 6-8 hours.  Shred the chicken.  A little before serving through in the white beans.  You can blend up some of the beans with the liquid if you want it "creamy."  Serve alone or with chips, avocado, sour cream, lime, cilantro, cheese (duh), tortilla strips, etc.

Serves 6.
