1. Marinate the Chicken: In A Medium Bowl, Combine The Lime Zest & Juice, Honey (Or Sweetener), Cilantro, Cumin, Chili Powder, & A Pinch Of Black Pepper Add The Chicken Strips, Tossing To Coat. Cover & Marinate In The Refrigerator For At Least 20 Minutes (Up To 1 Hour). This Infuses Flavor – Lime & Spices Make Up For Minimal Salt.

On Stovetop, You Can Cook Them In A Hot Skillet 4–5 Min Per Side. Discard Any Remaining Marinade. Once Done, Slice/Keep The Chicken In Strips For Assembling.
4. Warm Tortillas: Warm Tortillas (Grill Or Skillet ~30 Sec/side, Or Microwave In Damp Towel 20 Sec) To Make Pliable. Fill Each With Grilled Chicken Strips, Sautéed Peppers And Onions, 1 Tbsp Fresh Salsa, And Optionally A Tsp Greek Yogurt Or Avocado Slice. Fold And Serve Hot.
