Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat; saute onion and bell peppers until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
Add the condensed soups, canned tomatoes, broth, sour cream, cumin, ancho chile powder, oregano, and chipotle chile powder; mix until well combined.
Spread a few tablespoons sauce in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Layer with half of the chicken, half of the sauce, half of the cheese, and half of the tortillas.
Spread the remaining chicken over the tortillas. Spread the remaining sauce over the chicken, reserving 1/2 cup. Top with one third of the cheese, and the remaining tortillas.
Spread the reserved 1/2 cup sauce over the top. Sprinkle on the remaining Cheddar cheese.
Bake until bubbling, about 40 minutes.
