Savory Chicken Crêpes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Chicken Crêpes.

1. Step 1

   To start your delicious crêpes, gather all your ingredients for both the crêpes and the filling.

2. Step 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and a pinch of salt.

3. Step 3

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter until everything is well blended.

4. Step 4

   Gradually pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture, whisking continuously until the batter is smooth and creamy.

5. Step 5

   Once combined, cover the bowl and let the batter rest in the refrigerator for about an hour—this step is key for achieving that perfect texture.

6. Step 6

   After the batter has rested, strain it into a clean bowl to ensure it’s silky and lump-free.

7. Step 7

   Now, let’s get cooking! Heat a small nonstick skillet or crêpe pan over medium heat and lightly brush it with butter.

8. Step 8

   Pour in about two tablespoons of the batter, immediately swirling the pan to create a thin, even layer.

9. Step 9

   Cook the crêpe until the top looks set and the bottom is a lovely light brown, which should take about one to two minutes.

10. Step 10

    Gently run a spatula around the edges to loosen the crêpe, then flip it over and cook for another minute until the other side is golden brown.

11. Step 11

    Keep repeating this process with the remaining batter, stacking the finished crêpes on a plate as you go.

12. Step 12

    While you’re making those crêpes, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

13. Step 13

    For the filling, melt three tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.

14. Step 14

    Add in some minced garlic and fresh thyme, stirring until the aroma fills your kitchen.

15. Step 15

    Toss in the cooked chicken and heat it through for about five minutes.

16. Step 16

    Then, stir in cream cheese until it melts into a creamy, dreamy mixture.

17. Step 17

    Once your filling is ready, remove the skillet from the heat.

18. Step 18

    Spoon a generous amount of the chicken mixture into the center of each crêpe, fold them over, and arrange them in a shallow casserole dish, overlapping them slightly for a cozy presentation.

19. Step 19

    Drizzle the remaining melted butter over the top for that extra touch of richness.

20. Step 20

    Finally, pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for about ten minutes, or until everything is warmed through and inviting.

21. Step 21

    When you take them out, don’t forget to sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for a burst of color and flavor.

22. Step 22

    Serve these delightful crêpes warm, and watch as everyone gathers around to enjoy this comforting dish!.
