Queso Fundido Pizza

 1 pizza dough

cornmeal to dust pan

1 pound Mexican Chorizo

1/2 red onion, chopped

1 can chipotles in adobo sauce

1 cup tomato sauce

1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

1/2 cup crumbled queso fresco

1 cup black beans (could sub 1 cup corn)

chopped cilantro & chopped red onion to top 


Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  You could use a pizza stone, but this is a pretty loaded pizza and the grease from the chorizo tends to stain, so I prefer to use a pizza pan.

Saute chorizo and red onion in frying pan until chorizo is cooked thoroughly.  Drain grease as much as possible.

Roll out pizza dough & place on pizza pan sprinkled with cornmeal.

Mix together tomato sauce, 3 Tbs adobo sauce from can (or amount of heat to your preference), and 3 chopped chipotles from can (again, more or less depending on heat preference)

Spread tomato sauce mixture over dough.

Top with Monterey Jack cheese, then chorizo, beans (or corn), and crumbled queso fresco

Bake 20 minutes at 425 degrees or until crust is crisp and cheese is melted & bubbly

Top baked pizza with cilantro and red onion and enjoy
