Ingredients
  

2 medium boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, thinly sliced (red preferred for added sweetness)

1 bell pepper, thinly sliced (choose your favorite color for visual appeal)

2 teaspoons fajita seasoning (store-bought or homemade)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 large flour tortillas (or whole wheat for a healthier option)

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1 cup shredded lettuce (romaine or iceberg for crunch)

½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or a Mexican blend)

Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Begin by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips, ensuring uniform sizes for even cooking. In a medium bowl, season the chicken strips with fajita seasoning, along with a sprinkle of salt and freshly ground black pepper.

    Sauté the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken strips. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and no longer pink inside.

      Add the Vegetables: When the chicken is nearly finished cooking, introduce the sliced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté together for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender yet still slightly crisp, stirring frequently.

        Warm the Tortillas: While the chicken and vegetables cook, warm the tortillas to make them pliable. You can do this by either placing them in a dry skillet over low heat for a few seconds on each side or microwaving them for about 20 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel.

          Assemble the Wraps: Take one warm tortilla and lay it flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken and vegetable mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Next, add slices of creamy avocado, followed by a handful of shredded lettuce and a sprinkle of cheese on top.

            Roll It Up: To roll the wrap, fold in the sides of the tortilla so that the filling is enclosed. Starting from the bottom, tightly roll the tortilla upwards to create a secure wrap. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

              Serve and Enjoy: For presentation, you can slice each wrap in half diagonally for easier handling. Serve with lime wedges on the side for a zesty kick, and garnish each plate with fresh cilantro leaves.
