Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1 medium onion, sliced

4 large flour tortillas

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 cup diced tomatoes

½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)

½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

Lime wedges, for serving

Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and toss until they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor).

    Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the grill grates with cooking spray or a bit of oil to prevent sticking.

      Cook the Chicken: Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

        Sauté the Vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Add the sliced red and green bell peppers and onions, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until they are tender and slightly charred.

          Assemble the Wraps: Warm the flour tortillas on the grill or in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side. Lay out a tortilla and start by adding a generous portion of grilled chicken strips, followed by sautéed peppers and onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese.

            Add the Finishing Touches: Top each wrap with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt. You can squeeze fresh lime juice over the filling and sprinkle with chopped cilantro for added freshness.

              Wrap it Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it tightly from the bottom to create a wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

                Serve: Cut each wrap in half and serve with lime wedges on the side. Enjoy your delicious Sizzling Grilled Chicken Fajita Wraps!
