Slice the chicken breast into thin strips.
In a bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken strips and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, slice the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and onion into thin strips.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for about 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until cooked through and slightly browned.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the bell peppers and onion. Cook for about 5 minutes or until they are tender and slightly charred.
Return the chicken to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables. Cook for an additional minute to blend the flavors.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.
To assemble the wrap, place a quarter of the chicken and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Top with 1 tablespoon Greek yogurt, 15 grams shredded cheese, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
Fold up the bottom of the tortilla over the filling, then fold the sides inward, and roll up tightly. Serve immediately.
