Add half and half and stir over heat until thick and creamy, then season with salt, Cajun seasoning, paprika, cayenne pepper and black pepper.

2.) To prepare single serving, place tortilla on work surface and brush with melted butter. Place butter-side down on preheated griddle or large sauté pan over medium heat. Sprinkle half of tortilla with 1 cup shredded cheese evenly and layer with ½ cup peppers and onions, 2 ½ oz. crispy chicken, and ¼ tsp. Cajun seasoning. Fold tortilla in half over filling and toast until golden and crisp on both sides. Cut into 3 wedges and serve smothered with a 6 oz. ladle of Andouille Sausage Cream Gravy. Garnish with 1 tbsp. green onions and sprinkle of paprika as desired. Serve immediately.
