Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow onion, sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

4 large flour or corn tortillas

Optional toppings: fresh cilantro, avocado slices, lime wedges, shredded cheese, sour cream

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

      Toss the Chicken and Veggies: Add the chicken strips, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and yellow onion to the marinade. Toss everything together until all pieces are evenly coated.

        Prepare Foil Packs: Cut four large pieces of aluminum foil (about 12x18 inches each). Place a portion of the marinated chicken and veggies in the center of each piece of foil.

          Seal the Packs: Fold the sides of the foil over the filling, then fold the ends to create a sealed packet, leaving a bit of space for steam to circulate inside.

            Bake: Place the foil packs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

              Prepare Tortillas: While the chicken is baking, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or in the microwave.

                Serve: Carefully open the foil packs (watch out for steam!), and serve the chicken and veggies directly in the foil or on the warmed tortillas. Add your favorite toppings like cilantro, avocado, lime juice, shredded cheese, or sour cream.

                  Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy a scrumptious, flavorful meal!
