Start by preparing the chicken marinade. In a large bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and add them to the marinade. Toss to coat well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for better flavor penetration.
While the chicken marinates, prepare the vegetables. Slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers and the red onion into thin strips.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little olive oil if needed.
Once hot, add the marinated chicken strips to the skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced peppers and onions. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender yet still crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the peppers and onions. Stir well to combine and heat through for an additional 2 minutes.
Wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves thoroughly. These will serve as the wraps.
In each lettuce leaf, place a generous amount of the chicken and veggie mixture.
Slice the avocado and place a few slices on top of the chicken, along with some fresh cilantro leaves.
Wrap up the lettuce leaves to enclose the filling, and serve immediately.
