Method

Place a large pot over medium-low heat. Add olive oil. Once oil is hot, add onion, oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook until the onion is softened and translucent, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes.

Stir in garlic and cumin. Cook for another minute.

Stir in broth, beans, chickpeas, gold potatoes, chiles, salsa verde, and cayenne until combined. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for about 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked through. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until thickened slightly. 

Remove from heat. Stir in lime juice and season with additional salt and pepper, if desired. 

Serve with desired toppings.
