In a large pot or Dutch oven, add the cooked shredded chicken, salsa, drained and rinsed beans, and chicken broth.
Stir the ingredients together until well combined.
Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and let the chili cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and flavors are melded.
Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning if necessary (optional, as salsa usually provides enough flavor).
Serve the chicken chili warm with your choice of toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, or fresh cilantro.
