1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1 whole Large Onion, Diced
3 cloves Garlic, Chopped
3 whole Cooked And Shredded Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
4 teaspoons Ancho Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 teaspoon Onion Powder
1/2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
2 whole Chipotle Peppers In Adobo Sauce, Minced
1 teaspoon Adobo Sauce
6 cups Low Sodium Chicken Broth
1 can 28 Oz Can Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
2 cans (15 Oz. Size) Pinto Beans Or Black Beans, Drained (optional)

1
Heat a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and then add the onion and garlic. Lower the heat to medium low and cover pot. Cook, stirring as needed until the onions are translucent and just starting to caramelize. This takes about 30 minutes.
2
Add the chicken, ancho chili powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, brown sugar, chipotle peppers and adobo sauce to the pot and continue to cook for an additional 10 minutes with the pot covered so that the chicken gets infused with the aromatics and the spices.
3
Stir in the chicken broth, diced tomatoes, beans (if using), and green chilies. Stir in the dark chocolate cocoa powder. Add salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a slow boil and cook, uncovered, stirring as needed until the liquid has reduced to your level of preference.
4
For serving, pass the cheese and chopped cilantro for topping as desired. This is great with beer bread and a salad.
