  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in flour; cook for 1 minute. Whisk in chicken broth; cook and stir until sauce is smooth and thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir green chiles, olives, salt, oregano, and chile powder into the sauce. Add chicken and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken from the skillet, leaving heat on low. Place chicken on a plate; shred into bite-size pieces.
  • Stir sour cream into the sauce. Return chicken to the skillet. Add tortilla pieces. Stir until combined and top with cheese. Cover and cook until bubbly and melted, 5 to 8 minutes.
