Begin by preparing the ingredients. Slice the chicken breast into thin strips, chop the bell pepper into thin strips, and thinly slice the red onion.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken strips, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes until they are fully cooked and slightly golden.
Add the chopped bell pepper and sliced red onion to the frying pan with the chicken. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
While the chicken and vegetables are cooking, grate the cheddar cheese.
Lay the tortilla wraps flat on a clean surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of sour cream over each wrap.
Place 2 lettuce leaves on each tortilla, then evenly distribute the cooked chicken and vegetable mixture over the lettuce.
Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the top of the chicken and vegetables.
Fold the sides of the tortilla wraps inwards and roll them up tightly from the bottom to the top, enclosing the filling.
Once wrapped, use a sharp knife to slice each wrap in half for easier handling.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
