1 can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
Instructions
Dice the onion into uniform pieces.
Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the slow cooker.
Add the drained black beans, cannellini beans, diced tomatoes, onion, and spices on top of the chicken.

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 hours.
Remove the chicken breasts, shred with two forks, and return the meat to the slow cooker to combine before serving.
Notes
You can substitute chicken breasts with chicken thighs for a moister texture. If you prefer a thicker consistency, mash some of the beans against the side of the slow cooker before serving.
