Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp mayonnaise, 1 tsp prepared horseradish, and 1 tsp Dijon mustard; mix until smooth to make horseradish aioli.
  2. Step 2: Lay 1 large (10-inch) flour tortilla flat and spread the horseradish aioli evenly over the surface.
  3. Step 3: Layer 6 oz roast beef slices over the aioli, then place 2 slices Swiss cheese on top. Sprinkle 1/4 tsp black pepper evenly.
  4. Step 4: Roll the tortilla tightly into a wrap and secure with toothpicks if needed.
  5. Step 5: Heat 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the wrap seam-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes until golden and crisp, then carefully flip and cook another 3 minutes until cheese is melted and wrap is warm.
  6. Step 6: Remove from heat, let rest for 1 minute, slice in half diagonally, and serve warm.
