Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 cup romaine lettuce, shredded
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels

  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 5–7 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and fully cooked (165°F). Let rest 5 minutes.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lime juice, honey, chipotle powder, and salt until smooth.
  4. Warm tortillas in a skillet or microwave until pliable.

  • For meal prep, leave out avocado and tomatoes until serving.
  • Store wrapped in foil in the fridge for up to 3 days.
