Steps:
- Add 1 can of Great Northern beans to a medium bowl. Mash with a potato masher or fork until chunky.
- Add the olive oil to a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the chicken and season with 1 teaspoon of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.
- Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and golden brown, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic, green chiles, cumin, oregano, cayenne, chili powder, and black pepper and stir until the chicken is coated and the spices are aromatic, about 1 minute.
- Add the mashed beans and chicken stock and stir to combine. Bring the soup to a low boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add the remaining can of whole beans, corn, and remaining 2 teaspoons of salt. Cover and continue to simmer for 10 minutes, until warmed through.
- Ladle the chili into bowls and top with shredded cheddar cheese, cilantro, and sour cream.
