Place beans in heavy large pot with sufficient cool water to cover by at least 3 inches. Let stand overnight.

Drain beans. Return to pot. Add in sufficient cool water to pot to cover beans by 3 inches. Simmer till beans are almost tender, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. Drain well.
Heat butter in clean heavy large pot over medium heat. Add in onions and saute/fry till tender, about 15 min. Add in flour and stir 5 min (don't brown). Gradually whisk in chicken broth and half-and-half. Simmer gently till thickened, about 10 min. Add in reserved white beans and roasted chilies, shredded chicken, and next 5 ingredients. Simmer gently to blend flavors, about 20 min. (Chili can be made 1 day ahead. Refrigeratetill cool, then cover and keep chilled. Rewarm before continuing.)
Add in grated cheese and lowfat sour cream to chili; stir just till chili is heated through and cheese melts (don't boil). Ladle chili into bowls and garnish with cilantro and green salsa. Serve.
This recipe yields 10 to 12 servings.
