Notes

Note 1: The thinner the chicken, the better! You get a lot more seasoned chicken, it cooks faster, there is more crispy browning, it’s easier to put in a wrap and it’s just somehow more delicious - trust me on this!
Note 2: For the seasoning, all-purpose, garlic herb, grilled chicken… I’ve tried them all, and pretty much anything that goes with Ranch flavors and chicken works; we like using a Kinder’s seasoning, or Lawry’s.
Note 3: You can skip the onions entirely if you have picky eaters or just add them to individual wraps later if you prefer.
Note 4: It's important for the chicken to have enough space to sear and brown, if you only have a smaller skillet you will need to cook it in batches.
