Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Rub the chicken breast with olive oil, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Place the chicken breast in the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside. Once done, remove from heat and let rest.
While the chicken is cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork, then stir in the lime juice and salt until well combined.
Once the chicken has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.
Lay out the whole wheat wraps on a flat surface.
Spread an equal amount of mashed avocado on each wrap.
Place sliced chicken evenly over the avocado layer.
Top with chopped romaine lettuce, halved cherry tomatoes, red onion slices, and chopped cilantro.
Fold in the sides of the wrap, then roll tightly from the bottom to secure all ingredients.
Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately.
