Ingredients

For 4 servings

  • 600 g chicken breast
  • 4 whole-wheat tortilla
  • 300 g bell pepper
  • 150 g onion
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 0.5 tsp dried oregano
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 1 lime

Instructions

  1. 1

    Deseed and thinly slice the peppers, thinly slice the onion and halve the lime. Use four large whole-wheat tortillas, approximately 25 cm across and 60 g each.

  2. 2

    On a separate board, cut the boneless, skinless chicken into thin strips. Toss in a bowl with 1 tablespoon oil, paprika, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, black pepper and half the salt.

  3. 3

    Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining tablespoon oil, peppers, onion and remaining salt. Cook for 7–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened with lightly browned edges. Transfer to a plate.

  4. 4

    Cook the chicken in the same skillet in two batches, spreading each batch into a single layer. Cook for 4–5 minutes per batch, turning occasionally, until browned and the thickest strips reach an internal temperature of 74°C (165°F). Transfer cooked chicken to the plate with the vegetables.

  5. 5

    Return all the chicken and vegetables to the skillet. Squeeze over the lime juice and toss for 1 minute until hot. Remove from the heat.

  6. 6

    Stack the tortillas on a microwave-safe plate, cover with a damp paper towel and microwave for 30–45 seconds until pliable. Divide the filling evenly among them, fold in the sides and roll into wraps. Serve immediately.
