- Cumin
- Chili powder
- Garlic powder
- Salt

- Olive oil

Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- In a skillet over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
- While the chicken is cooking, chop the bell peppers, red onion, and any additional veggies you're using. Sauté them in the same skillet for about 3-4 minutes until they're slightly tender but still crisp.
- To make wrapping easier, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for about 15-20 seconds.
- On each tortilla, layer a generous amount of sliced chicken, sautéed vegetables, black beans, corn, and cheese. Drizzle some salsa on top for extra flavor.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it tightly from the bottom up. Ensure everything is secure inside.
- For added texture, you can place the wrapped tortilla back on the grill or in the skillet for a minute or two on each side to crisp it up.
