Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a tablespoon of olive oil.
In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, dairy-free cream cheese, diced green chilies, dairy-free sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spread about 1/4 cup of the green enchilada sauce over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Warm each corn tortilla for about 20 seconds on each side until pliable.
Fill each tortilla with about 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture, then roll up and place seam side down in the baking dish.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken mixture.
Pour the remaining green enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas.
Sprinkle the dairy-free shredded cheese over the top of the enchiladas.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish enchiladas with chopped cilantro.
Serve hot with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the enchiladas.
