Time 57m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 20

5 tablespoons butter, divided
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
⅓ cup finely chopped onion
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
2 cubes chicken bouillon
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ cup sour cream
3 tablespoons dry sherry
2 teaspoons dried parsley, divided

¾ cup all-purpose flour
1 egg
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon baking powder

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir chicken until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Melt remaining 1/4 cup butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onion; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup flour and cook for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add 2 cups milk, chicken bouillon cubes, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until thickened into a sauce, about 5 minutes. Stir in sour cream and sherry.

  • Grease a 7-inch skillet lightly; heat over medium heat. Pour 2 tablespoons batter into the skillet, swirling to spread evenly. Cook crepe until golden brown, about 30 seconds per side. Transfer crepe to a plate. Repeat with remaining batter, separating crepes with waxed paper and covering to keep warm.

CHICKEN CREPES



Chicken Crepes image

Looked at all the other Chicken Crepe recipes and mine is not like the others! I first found this recipe in my mom's old cook book, but have totally tweaked it and made it my own! It's one of my favorites to eat, and my family gets so excited when I make these! I usually double or triple the gravy to have lots of it to pour over the crepes and enough left over to have with mashed potatoes.

THE BEST CREPES



The Best Crepes image

Our classic crepe is versatile enough to go sweet or savory, just omit the vanilla if going the savory route. The rest time here is key; the flour absorbs the milk as it sits giving you a more tender crepe and golden color.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 8h30m

Yield 15 crepes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups milk, at room temperature
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Vegetable oil, for the pan

Steps:

  • Add the milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla and salt to a blender. Puree on high speed until completely smooth and slightly thickened and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the melted butter and puree until incorporated, 30 seconds more. Let the batter rest in the blender carafe for at least 1 hour at room temperature or refrigerate up to 24 hours. The longer you allow the batter to rest and hydrate, the lighter and softer the texture of the crepes will be; overnight is ideal.
  • Before cooking, re-blend the batter at high speed for 30 seconds. This will reincorporate the ingredients, a vital step in getting an even golden color on the crepes. Wipe 1/2 teaspoon of oil on a large crepe pan or a 10-inch nonstick skillet with a paper towel. You don't want to see any drops of oil in the pan, just coat with the thinnest layer. Heat the pan over medium heat until hot.
  • Ladle 1/4 cup batter into the pan. Working quickly off the heat, swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the bottom with the batter. Return to the heat and cook the crepe, reducing the heat if it's browning too quickly, until the edges are light golden, about 2 minutes. Slide a spatula underneath to loosen the crepe and carefully flip it over. Cook on the other side until a few brown spots appear, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, wiping pan with oil each time. Stack the crepes on the plate as you go (you should have about 15 total). Let the crepes cool for 10 minutes before serving or filling.
  • For fillings, we suggest Nutella and bananas or peanut butter and jelly for sweet crepes. Ham and cheese makes a great filling for savory crepes.
