Santa Fe Chicken and White Bean Soup image

One of the most requested soups at Gubanc's Pub in Portland, Or. Their chef has created so many soups that they could serve a different one each day for 3 months. The amount of ingredients looks long and time-consuming, but you can actually put the spices together days before. This is a wonderful, soul-warming soup with terrific flavor.
