Method

Preparing the Chicken

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the boneless chicken breast and season with salt, black pepper, cumin powder, and chili powder. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

  2. 2

    Shred the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

Sautéing Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare Vegetables

    While the chicken is resting, slice the bell pepper and onion into strips. Mince the garlic cloves.

  2. 4

    Cook Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Saute the sliced bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

Assembling the Tortillas

  1. 5

    Fill the Tortillas

    Lay each tortilla flat on a plate. Distribute the shredded chicken evenly among the tortillas, followed by the sautéed vegetables.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the chicken and vegetables. Add a dollop of sour cream, a handful of shredded lettuce, and a spoonful of salsa.

  3. 7

    Wrap the Tortillas

    Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up from the bottom to enclose the filling. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.
