Step 1

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.

Cut the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into thin strips. Slice the onion thinly.

In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips, olive oil, garlic powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.

Squeeze the juice of the lime over the cooked vegetables and chicken. Return the chicken to the skillet and toss everything together for another 2 minutes.

Step 7

Arrange the cooked chicken and vegetables in the large Romaine lettuce leaves as taco shells.
