-- CHICKEN CHEDDAR CREPES WITH MUSHROOMS --
A HUGE Family Favorite!! Cheesy -- Garlicky -- Mushrooms and Chicken! YUM YUM :O) I made this up one day and have been touching it up over the years... I think we've got it! Sometimes I use the Wild Bunch, prepackaged, from our local store with Baby Bella, Shitake and Oyster Mushrooms. The mixture of mushrooms gives this an excellent flavor. But this recipe tastes good with any mushroom. If you're a big garlic fan you could add one extra clove after adding broth in step 5. Please try! I'd love to hear what you think! This recipe does not include time for making crepes. I used the recipe from the Crepe Forum and they turned out fantastic!

EASY CHICKEN-STUFFED CREPES
This is a recipe that was given to me a couple of years ago. My hubby really loves it especially when I use rotisserie chicken as part of the filling versus just chicken breast. These crepes cook very quickly so don't wander too far from the stove while cooking. They also freeze very well!

CHICKEN CREPES WITH ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOMS
Steps:
- Make filling:
- Heat 5 tablespoons butter in a 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat until foam subsides. Whisk in flour and cook roux, whisking, until pale golden, about 2 minutes. Gradually add milk and broth, whisking, and bring to a boil, whisking. Reduce heat and simmer gently, whisking frequently, until velouté sauce is silky and thick, about 25 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup sauce for topping.
- Cook shallot in remaining tablespoon butter in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Stir into velouté sauce along with chicken and Sherry.
- Cut tips from asparagus and set aside. Cut enough stalks into 1/4-inch pieces to measure 1 cup, reserving remainder for another use. Cook tips in a saucepan of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice and cold water with a slotted spoon. Scoop out tips and drain on paper towels, then reserve for topping. Cook and drain chopped asparagus in same manner and stir into velouté sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
- Make crêpes:
- Sift together flour, salt, nutmeg, and pepper to taste into a bowl. Whisk together milk, whole egg, and yolk in a small bowl, then gradually whisk into flour mixture. Force batter through a fine sieve into a bowl.
- Heat a dry 7- to 8-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot, then brush very lightly with some melted butter. Spoon about 2 tablespoons batter into skillet, tilting to coat bottom. (If batter sets before skillet is coated, reduce heat slightly for next crêpe.) Cook until underside is lightly browned, 6 to 10 seconds, then loosen crêpe with a spatula and flip. Cook until just cooked through, about 20 seconds, and transfer to a plate. Make 15 more crêpes in same manner, brushing skillet with melted butter as needed and stacking crêpes on plate.
- Assemble and bake crêpes:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Spread 1/4 cup filling across center of 1 crêpe and roll into a cylinder. Transfer, seam side down, to buttered baking dish, then assemble more crêpes in same manner, fitting them snugly. Bake in middle of oven 15 minutes.
- Make topping while crêpes bake:
- Stir together yolk, 2 tablespoons cream, and reserved 1/2 cup sauce until smooth. Beat remaining 3 tablespoons cream with a whisk until it holds soft peaks, then fold into yolk mixture.
- Spoon topping over crêpes and broil 5 to 6 inches from heat until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
- Heat butter in skillet, then add reserved asparagus tips and toss until warm.
- Put 2 crêpes on each of 8 plates and top with asparagus tips.
Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before starting, prep all ingredients and equipment. This will ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Crepe Batter Consistency: The crepe batter should be thin and pourable. Adjust milk or flour as needed to achieve the right consistency.
- Non-Stick Pan: Use a non-stick pan to prevent crepes from sticking. If needed, grease the pan with butter or cooking spray between each crepe.
- Thin Crepes: Pour a thin layer of batter into the pan, swirling to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
- Keep Crepes Warm: As you cook the crepes, keep them warm by stacking them on a plate and covering them with foil or a kitchen towel.
- Shredded Cheddar: Use freshly shredded cheddar cheese for the best flavor and texture in the filling.
- Sautéed Mushrooms: Sauté mushrooms in butter with garlic, thyme, and salt until tender and flavorful.
- Seasoning: Taste the filling and adjust seasonings as desired. Add more salt, pepper, or herbs if needed.
- Filling and Rolling: Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each crepe and spread it out evenly. Fold the sides of the crepe over the filling and roll it up tightly.
- Baking: Arrange the filled crepes in a baking dish, seam side down. Bake until heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Chicken Cheddar Crepes with Mushrooms offer a delightful combination of flavors and textures. By following these tips, you can create perfect crepes that are thin, tender, and bursting with savory filling.
