Season chicken with 1 t. kosher salt and 1 t. black pepper.
In a large 8 quart Dutch oven, add 2 T. oil; heat over medium-high heat. When oil is heated, add chicken; sear both sides until golden brown.
Lower temperature; add chicken stock; cook until chicken is cooked through and tender, about 20 minutes. Remove chicken and any stock from pan; set aside.
Bring heat to medium; add remaining 2 T. oil; add onions, celery, green bell peppers, poblano peppers and remaining 1 t. salt; sweat until tender. Add in minced garlic, minced jalapenos, cumin, cayenne and tomatillos; reduce heat.
Shred chicken; fold into chili; simmer until tomatillos break down a little and chicken is very tender, about 30 minutes.
Fold in the white beans; simmer for another 15 minutes. Taste and add more salt if needed.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream or guacamole and nacho or tortilla chips, if desired.
