Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your air fryer or oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and prepare your baking sheets or air fryer basket.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy whipping cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir well and create a slurry with flour and water, thickening the sauce for 5-7 minutes.
  3. Lay out the pita breads. Spread Alfredo sauce on each, and top with cooked chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach, finishing with mozzarella cheese.
  4. Cook in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or in the air fryer for 5-6 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Remove from the appliance, let cool slightly, slice, and serve with extra Alfredo sauce on the side.
