Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 medium red bell pepper, sliced

1 medium green bell pepper, sliced

1 medium onion, sliced

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)

1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

1 cup fresh salsa (store-bought or homemade)

Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken strips with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until chicken is well-coated. Let sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated chicken. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

      Add Veggies: Once the chicken is cooked, add the sliced red and green bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes until the veggies are tender but still crisp.

        Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface. In the center of each tortilla, layer with shredded lettuce, followed by the chicken and veggie mixture. Sprinkle with shredded cheese.

          Add Toppings: Top each wrap with a generous dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and a spoonful of fresh salsa. If desired, sprinkle with fresh cilantro for added flavor.

            Wrap It Up: Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to secure the fillings inside. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

              Serve: Cut the wraps in half diagonally and serve with extra salsa on the side for dipping. Enjoy your flavorful quick chicken fajita wraps!
