How do you make wraps crispy?

Toast them seam-side down in a dry skillet for 1–2 minutes per side, or bake briefly at 375°F. Wrapping tightly and using cheese helps them hold their shape and crisp better.

What is the trick to getting crispy chicken?

Use panko breadcrumbs, bake on a wire rack, and avoid crowding the tray. Pre-toasting the crumbs adds extra crunch without frying.
