Ingredients
  

2 medium boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, sliced (preferably red for sweetness)

1 bell pepper, sliced (choose your favorite color)

2 teaspoons fajita seasoning (store-bought or homemade)

Salt and pepper, to taste

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

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1 cup shredded lettuce

½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. Season with fajita seasoning, salt, and pepper.

    Sauté the Chicken: In a large pan over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes until golden and cooked through, stirring occasionally.

      Add the Vegetables: Once the chicken is nearly done, add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the pan. Continue cooking for an additional 4-5 minutes until the veggies are tender but still crisp.

        Warm the Tortillas: While the chicken and vegetables are cooking, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for about 20 seconds until pliable.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Start with a layer of the chicken and veggie mixture. Add sliced avocado, shredded lettuce, and cheese on top.

            Roll It Up: Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up to create a tight wrap. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

              Serve and Enjoy: Optionally, you can slice the wraps in half for easy handling. Serve with lime wedges and garnish with fresh cilantro.
