Marinate chicken in olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes.

Grill chicken over medium heat until cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side.

Let grilled chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Warm tortillas on a skillet until pliable, about 1-2 minutes.

Spread a layer of aji amarillo sauce on each tortilla.

Add sliced grilled chicken, avocado, lettuce, tomato, red onion, and cheese on top of the sauce.

Sprinkle with cilantro and black beans, if using.

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly to form a wrap.

Serve with lime wedges and additional aji amarillo sauce on the side.
