Remove tortillas from refrigerator. Heat oven to 350° F. In medium saucepan melt margarine; saute onion & garlic in margarine until tender. Stir in 1/2 of the green chiles, sour cream & soup; mix well. Set aside 3/4 cup of the soup mixture. Stir in chicken and 1/2 cup cheese.

Warm tortillas as directed on package. Fill tortillas with chicken mixture; roll up. Place seam side down in un-greased 12 x 8-inch (2 quart) baking dish.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in flour and chili powder, reduce heat to medium, and cook until lightly brown, stirring constantly to prevent burning flour.

Gradually stir in tomato sauce, water, cumin, garlic powder, and onion salt into the flour and chili powder until smooth, and continue cooking over medium heat approximately 10 minutes, or until thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt.

Spoon over enchiladas in dish and bake for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly. To serve, sprinkle with remaining cheese and drizzle with remaining red sauce.

Makes 8 enchiladas.
