Step 1
Thinly slice the chicken breast into strips.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6
Return the cooked chicken strips to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir everything together to combine well.

Place the slices of provolone cheese over the chicken and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for about 1-2 minutes.

Once the cheese is melted, remove the skillet from the heat.
Step 9
Serve by spooning the chicken cheesesteak mixture onto the large romaine lettuce leaves, folding each leaf like a taco, and enjoy your low carb meal!
