1

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips.

2

Cut the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into thin strips. Slice the onion thinly.

3

In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips, olive oil, garlic powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.

4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

5

In the same skillet, add the bell peppers and onion slices. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and slightly charred.

6

Squeeze the juice of the lime over the cooked vegetables and chicken. Return the chicken to the skillet and toss everything together for another 2 minutes.

7

Arrange the cooked chicken and vegetables in the large Romaine lettuce leaves as taco shells.

8

Top each taco with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
