Cook Time 25 minutes
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease 15×10-inch jelly-roll baking pan. Combine picante sauce, cilantro, chili powder and cumin in large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 5 minutes.
Combine 1-1/2 cups sauce mixture, chicken, beans and 2/3 cup French Fried Onions in medium bowl. Spoon a scant 1/2 cup filling over bottom third of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas enclosing filling and arrange, seam-side down, in a single layer in bottom of prepared baking pan. Spoon remaining sauce evenly over tortillas.
Bake, uncovered, 20 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with remaining 2/3 cup onions and cheese. Bake 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and onions are golden. Serve immediately.
