Directions:

  1. The first thing you need to do is let the chicken broth boil in a large pot.
  2. Then, add the chicken breast and cover. Lower the heat and let simmer until the chicken is properly cooked and isn’t pink in the center. It should take about 8-12 minutes, but you can also use an instant-read thermometer. If you insert it into the center and it shows at least 165F, the chicken is ready.
  3. Transfer it to a plate and shred or cut into small pieces.
  4. Now, it’s time to return the shredded chicken to the pot. Add the onion and seasoning mix and stir well.
  5. Then, add the beans and cook for about 15 minutes. You can also season with some salt and other seasonings you like.
  6. Let it cool for a few minutes and serve!
