Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the marinade by whisking together olive oil, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
  2. Marinate the chicken by rubbing the spice mixture on both sides of the chicken breasts and let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F (190°C).
  4. Grill the chicken for approximately 6–7 minutes on each side until fully cooked.
  5. Rest the chicken for about 5 minutes after grilling, then slice it into thin strips.
  6. Assemble the wraps by laying the tortillas out and layering with lettuce, tomato, chicken strips, cheddar cheese, sour cream, and salsa.
  7. Roll the tortillas tightly, folding in the sides to encase the fillings.
  8. Optionally, grill the wrapped tortillas for 1–2 minutes on each side for added crispiness.
  9. Serve the wraps sliced in half with lime wedges on the side.
