4 cups shredded romaine lettuce

2. While tortillas are baking, spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Saute onion with the seasoning until soft and brown (4-5 minutes). Stir in the chicken and heat through.
3. To serve, top a corn tortilla with chicken, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream.
