More like a jumbo wrap, this recipe’s filling combines everything you’d expect in a fajita—sizzling meat and peppers, cool crisp veggies, and cheese. But here all the components are rolled-up in a soft, flat-bread instead of being stuffed into a tortilla. A robust marinade of lime juice, taco seasoning, and oil tenderizes and flavours versatile sliced chicken breasts. Plan to marinade the chicken for at least one hour, turning the strips occasionally to ensure they’re coated well. We used a combination of red, green and yellow bell peppers for colour variation but you use one type if you’d like.
