1. Prepare the beans and reserve. Put the chicken into a large saucepan. Add the broth, 1 cup of water, half of the onion, half of the garlic, the carrot, and the crushed red pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer the chicken, covered, until tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove the chicken pieces to a bowl and cover to keep moist. Pour the cooked broth through a strainer into a bowl and reserve for the sauce. Discard the debris.
2. In a blender or food processor, blend the tomatillos, jalapeños, cumin, allspice, cloves, the remaining half of the onion, and the remaining garlic. Add 1 cup of the chicken broth, and blend until smooth.
3. In a large saucepan, heat the oil until it shimmers. Slowly pour in the tomatillo mixture (so it won't splatter), and cook, stirring frequently, 5 minutes.
4. In the same blender jar, blend the parsley, epazote, hoja santa, masa, salt, pepper, and sugar with 1/2 cup of the cooked chicken broth. Purée the mixture until smooth, and pour into the pan with the sauce. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, 20 minutes. Add the cooked chicken and the white beans. Simmer, partially covered, 10 to 15 minutes to heat through and blend flavors. Adjust seasoning. Serve hot.
