Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Season chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Place into a baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. Allow chicken to cool, and shred with 2 forks. Set chicken aside.
- Heat butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, and cook the onion and jalapenos until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes; stir in the cream cheese in chunks, and allow cream cheese to melt and soften. Stir in cream cheese, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, chili powder, and cumin. Mix in the cooked chicken meat; remove from heat.
- Pour half the green enchilada sauce into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Lay tortillas out onto a work surface, and place chicken mixture in a line down the center of each tortilla; sprinkle with about 1 tablespoon of Monterey Jack cheese per tortilla. Roll up the tortillas, and place into the sauce in the dish, seam sides down; pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas. Sprinkle remaining 4 ounces of Monterey Jack cheese over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is hot and bubbling and the cheese has melted, 30 to 35 minutes.

Tips:
- Opt for high-quality cream cheese to ensure a smooth and flavorful filling.
- Use a block of cream cheese instead of a spread for a thicker, more spreadable consistency.
- Soften the cream cheese to room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth filling.
- If you like a spicier filling, use a hotter variety of jalapeño peppers or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- Use a sharp cheddar cheese for a bold flavor, or a mild cheddar for a more subtle taste.
- If you prefer thinner tortillas, roll them out thinner before cooking.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat to prevent the tortillas from burning.
- Cook the tortillas for a few minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Serve the tortillas warm with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
