Use 3½ oz Pollo Asado instead

It comes fully cooked and already marinated in citrus and chipotle, so steps 2 to 4 go away. Thaw it in the fridge overnight. Heat it in a skillet over medium high heat for 5 to 7 minutes, turning, until it reaches 165°F. Slice it into strips, toss it in the peri peri sauce and build the wrap.
