Ground chicken is often less expensive and cooks quickly.

Start with 2 1/2 lbs of chicken breast, sliced off camera.

Drizzle about 1 tbsp of oil over the chicken.

Add diced bell peppers and onions to the chicken.

Season with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, seasoned salt, parsley, and ground black pepper.

Mix the ingredients well.

Heat a skillet and drizzle some oil until hot.

Place the chicken breast in the skillet and cook for about 4 minutes per side or until golden brown.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Sauté the onions and bell peppers in the skillet until soft, about 10 minutes on low.

Add diced tomatoes to the sautéed vegetables and cook for a few more minutes.

Shred the chicken using two forks or a hand mixer, then set aside.

Blend the sautéed vegetables with 1 cup of chicken broth until creamy.

Add the shredded chicken back to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables and blended pepper mixture.

Season with more seasoned salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder to taste.

Simmer the mixture for about 5 to 7 minutes to cook the peppers thoroughly.

Heat a skillet and add 1 tbsp of oil for the tortillas.

Place a tortilla in the skillet, add mozzarella cheese, red onion, cilantro, and the chicken mixture on top.

Allow both sides of the tortilla to get golden brown and crispy.

Serve with lime to squeeze on top.
