Steps to make Chicken Enchilada Bake:

Bring to a boil over high and cook 2 minutes or until thickened. Place 1 1/2 cups tomato mixture in a bowl and reserve. Add shredded chicken and beans to the remaining sauce mixture and cook in the pan for 2 minutes.

Spoon 2-3 Tablespoons of the chicken mixture in the middle of each of the tortillas down the center of the Tortillas, and fold or roll them up. Arrange the filled tortillas, seam side down in a 13 X 9 inch glass or ceramic baking dish coated with cooking spray. Top with the 1 can of fire roasted tomatos, and the reserved 1 1/2 cups of sauce, and add shredded Mexican cheese on top.
