I had the following items to use up: Piri Piri marinade, cilantro, pinto beans and lots of cheese. I always have the mixins for pizza crust, so this is what I came up with.
Measurements are approximate.
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, diced
1 cup piri piri (optional)
1 cup pinto beans, drained and mashed
1 cup shredded cheese (I used sharp cheddar)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
Marinate chicken at least four hours or overnight.
Preheat oven to 450°.
Sprinkle cornmeal over a baking sheet drizzled with olive oil. Set aside. Prepare pizza crust according to package directions. Cover and let rest.
While dough is resting, drizzle a little olive oil in a frying pan on medium high. Saute chicken until nice and brown. Set aside.
Roll dough into a 14 x 11-inch rectangle on prepared baking sheet. Spread beans over dough. Top with diced chicken and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 450° for 10-12 minutes or until crust browns and cheese is bubbly. Let cool 10 minutes.
Combine cilantro and the remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Drizzle over pizza and serve.

TA: If you eat beans frequently like I do, that's usually not a problem.
Thanks Sue!!!! Hope you enjoy it!
(I am fussy I admit it ) Oh by the guys you don't need to worry about the gas - go to the grocery store and get some " Beano". I am told it works great !!
Thank you, Jenny. It was easy too.
