  1. Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the onion and garlic. Cut the red and yellow bell peppers into strips.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add the diced chicken to the pan, cooking until the pieces are browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the red and yellow bell peppers, cooking for another 3 minutes until they begin to soften.
  5. Add the chopped tomatoes, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  6. Reduce the heat to low and let the chili simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
  7. Squeeze the juice of half a lime over the chili just before serving, stirring to combine. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with lime wedges if desired.
