Southwestern Chicken Pizza

One more and then I really have to leave for work. We had this one yesterday and it's very yummy. It's a take off of one of my favorite CPK pizzas.

Southwestern Chicken Pizza

1 Boboli or other pizza crust (we use wheat thin crust Boboli)
2 chicken breasts or 4-5 chicken tenders
1/2 package Taco seasoning (optional)
1 can black beans (drained)
1 small can of green chiles
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded pepperjack cheese
1/2 cup verde or green chile sauce
1 tbs olive oil

Dice chicken into cubes with kitchen scissors or knife and cook in medium pan. If desired add taco seasoning to chicken while cooking. While the chicken is cooking, in a small saucepan, heat the drained black beans and the undrained small can of green chiles until the beans are soft. Once soft, use a potato masher to mash the beans into a paste--can be a little lumpy. Spread the tbs. of olive oil onto the pizza crust to soften it. Then add the mashed bean/chile paste as your sauce--spread evenly. Then top with pepperjack and mozzarella cheeses. Add cooked chicken. Then finish by dousing the pizza with a little bit of verde sauce all over for flavor. Follow cooking directions for pizza crust--usually 350 for 10-15 minutes.

Makes a great leftover for lunch too!
