Cook the pasta according to the package instructions but without salt. Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the yellow onions and bell peppers. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until tender but crunchy. Incorporate the tomatoes and cook for 3 minutes. Add the chicken, the beans, and half of the cilantro; mix them well. Remove the pan from the heat. Drain the pasta. Add the chicken mixture and stir until combined. Pour the pasta into a baking dish and sprinkle with cheese. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until heated through and the cheese melts. Sprinkle with the remaining cilantro.
