Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cook Chicken: Season Chicken with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and salt. Cook in a skillet until fully cooked, then shred.
Prepare Sauce: In a saucepan, heat Vegetable oil over medium heat. Whisk in Flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in Chicken broth until smooth. Add Hatch green chile, cumin, garlic powder, Salt, and Pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Assemble Enchiladas: Dip each Corn tortilla in the Sauce to soften. Fill each tortilla with shredded Chicken, Onion, and Monterey Jack cheese. Roll up tightly and place seam-side down in a baking dish.
