Start by slicing the chicken breasts into thin strips.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chicken strips with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until chicken is evenly coated.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred at the edges.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the toppings. Slice the avocado and cherry tomatoes.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the heat and squeeze fresh lime juice over it.
Take a large romaine lettuce leaf and place a few strips of cooked chicken onto it.
Top with a dollop of sour cream, sliced avocado, cherry tomatoes, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.
Roll up the lettuce leaf to enclose the filling, forming a wrap.
Repeat the wrapping process with the remaining ingredients to make a total of 8 wraps.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb paprika chicken wraps.
