Preheat the oven to 375°F. Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the turkey, onion, and salt. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until the turkey is browned and the onion is soft. Done when turkey is no longer pink, 165°F.
Stir in the garlic, chili powder, water, and one tablespoon of the enchilada sauce. Cook for 2 minutes until the liquid has slightly reduced and the mixture is fragrant. Remove from the heat.
Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a small baking dish. Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds to soften. Lay the tortillas flat, divide the turkey mixture between them, and roll tightly. Place them seam-side down in the dish.
Pour the remaining sauce over the tortillas. Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 10 minutes.
Remove the foil and sprinkle the fat-free cheese over the top. Return to the oven and bake until the sauce bubbles at the edges and the cheese is melted, about 5 to 8 minutes more. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
