Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven or air fryer to 350°F.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine heavy cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and black pepper. Whisk over medium heat for 2–3 minutes.
  3. Mix flour with water to create a slurry. Add this to the saucepan and continue to cook for an additional 2–3 minutes until it thickens.
  4. Spread approximately 3 tablespoons of the creamy Alfredo sauce on each pita.
  5. Evenly distribute the cooked chicken on each pita, layer sun-dried tomatoes and baby spinach leaves, and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
  6. Bake for 10–12 minutes or air fry for 5–6 minutes until cheese is bubbly and edges are crispy.
  7. Let them cool slightly and serve warm with remaining Alfredo sauce for dipping.
