Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil
  • 1 sweet red pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 green pepper, thinly sliced

Sprinkle chicken with half each of the chili powder and salt. Broil or grill chicken, turning once, until browned and juices run clear when chichen is pierced, about 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, brush oil over nonstick skillet over medium heat; cook red and green peppers, onion, garlic and remaining chili powder and salt, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, about 4 minutes. Stir in salsa and lime juice.

Mound vegetable mixture, chicken, sour cream and lettuce on tortillas; roll up.
