In a slow cooker, combine chicken broth, tomatoes, black beans, corn, tomato sauce, diced green chiles, and taco seasoning. Add the shredded chicken. Cover and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours.
Serve the soup topped with shredded Cheddar cheese, sour cream, crushed tortilla chips, and chopped cilantro.
