# How to make it:

01 - Combine chicken strips with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Toss until evenly coated.
02 - Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange chicken strips in a single layer and cook for approximately 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
03 - In a separate bowl, gently mix mango, avocado, red onion, bell pepper, cilantro, and lime juice. Season lightly with salt if preferred.
04 - Heat flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
05 - Distribute shredded lettuce down the center of each tortilla. Arrange cooked chicken strips over lettuce, spoon the mango-avocado mixture on top, and add salsa as desired.
06 - Fold the sides of the tortilla inward and roll tightly from the bottom to seal.
07 - For a toasted exterior, grill assembled burritos seam-side down in a hot skillet for 1–2 minutes.
08 - Present immediately with tortilla chips, extra salsa, or guacamole as desired.
