Juice the lime and set aside.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil and half of the lime juice over the chicken. Sprinkle with ground black pepper and garlic powder. Turn the chicken to coat it well. Let it marinate for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips and the cucumber into matchsticks.
Peel, pit, and slice the avocados, then toss them with the remaining lime juice to prevent browning.
Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165Β°F (74Β°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.
Lay the whole wheat tortillas flat on a clean surface. Place a leaf of romaine lettuce on each tortilla.
Distribute the sliced chicken, red bell pepper, cucumber, and avocado slices evenly among the tortillas.
Sprinkle fresh cilantro leaves over the filling.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the contents of each wrap if desired.
Roll the tortillas tightly to form wraps. Cut each wrap in half if preferred.
Serve immediately, or wrap tightly in parchment paper for a portable meal.
