Start by slicing the chicken breast, bell peppers, and onions into thin strips and combine in a large mixing bowl.
Add the lemon juice and all the seasoning, setting aside 1 tablespoon of salt and pepper, and mix well with a tablespoon of olive oil. You can set it aside to marinate or use immediately.
Bring another tablespoon of oil to heat in a medium-sized frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken has browned. 7-10 minutes.
While that’s cooking, add your corn and black beans to a small pasta pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the chicken is done, or about 5 minutes.
Once the chicken is finished you can set it aside to rest while you heat your tortillas. Choose whatever method you use best (I prefer heating them over a low open flame on the oven).
Now that your tortillas are warm all that is left is to plate and serve. Start with layering some shredded lettuce, cheese, chicken mixture, and then the beans. Sprinkle a little of the remaining salt and pepper on top to taste and you're ready to dig in.
