Preheat oven to 400°F. Place crust on a large baking sheet.

Place half of the beans and oil in a small bowl, setting the rest of the beans aside. Mash into a coarse paste and spread bean mixture over crust.

Put salsa in a strainer or colander and shake to remove excess liquid. Spread salsa over beans and then evenly distribute chicken, chilies and reserved beans on top. Sprinkle with grated Cabot Sharp Cheddar (or Cabot Lite50 Sharp Cheddar).

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until cheese is beginning to color. Remove from oven and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Let stand for several minutes before cutting into slices and devouring.
