Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.
In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the diced onion until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
Stir in the shredded chicken breast, ground cumin, chili powder, and diced green chiles. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the reduced-fat sour cream, fat-free Greek yogurt, and chicken broth. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste and stir until smooth.
Spread a thin layer of the sour cream sauce (about 1/4 cup) evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Spoon about 1/3 cup of the chicken mixture into the center of each tortilla. Roll the tortillas tightly and place them seam-side down into the baking dish. Repeat this process for all 8 tortillas.
Pour the remaining sour cream sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas, making sure to cover them completely. Sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat Mexican blend cheese over the top.
Bake the enchiladas in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Once out of the oven, let the enchiladas rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve warm.
