Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 package dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons); 3/4 cup warm water (100u00b0 to 110u00b0); 1 teaspoon olive oil; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 2 cups all-purpose flour, divided; Cooking spray; 1 teaspoon cornmeal; 1 1/2 cups chopped peeled mango (about 1 1/2 mangoes); 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice; 1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) Monterey Jack cheese, shredded; 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro; 2 finely chopped seeded jalapeno peppers

Servings: persons

1 package dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
3/4 cup warm water (100u00b0 to 110u00b0)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
Cooking spray
1 teaspoon cornmeal
1 1/2 cups chopped peeled mango (about 1 1/2 mangoes)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 finely chopped seeded jalapeno peppers

1
Dissolve yeast in water in a large bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Stir in oil and salt. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Add 1 3/4 cups flour to yeast mixture; stir until a soft dough forms. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes); add enough of remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands (dough will feel tacky).
2
Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover, and let rise in a warm place (85u00b0), free from drafts, 45 minutes or until doubled in size. (Press two fingers into dough. If indentation remains, the dough has risen enough.)
3
Preheat oven to 500u00b0.
4
Punch dough down; turn out onto a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal. Roll into a 14 x 10-inch rectangle. Lightly coat surface of dough with cooking spray.
5
Combine mango and lime juice in a small bowl; toss well.
6
Combine the shredded cheese and fresh cilantro in a small bowl. Sprinkle cheese mixture evenly over dough. Top with jalapeno. Bake at 500u00b0 for 8 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and crust is browned. Top with mango mixture.
