CHICKEN FLORENTINE CREPE (IHOP'S COPYCAT)



Chicken Florentine Crepe (Ihop's Copycat) image

I just love this dish! I never knew how yummy spinach can be till I tried this entree in IHOP. It was a limited time only dish and when they took it out, I searched through the internet for the recipe but couldn't find one so I decided to take the matters into my own hands! This recipe is really easy and the ingredients may already be in your fridge! Serve it alone or with garlic bread or steamed veggies on the side. Notes: You can substitute chicken with leftover turkey or chicken rotisserie, lets face it, nobody ever eats those leftover turkey and rotisserie! You can also serve this as an appetizer. Just cook smaller proportions of crepes. And for those on protein diet, substitute the crepe with omelet!

This would go well with Basic Whole Wheat French Crepes #102058. This is a nice company dish, easy to prepare, especially if made in stages. Some can even be frozen and just popped in the oven. If you plan to freeze crepes, use only fresh ingredients to start with. This is from Cook Now, Serve Later Cookbook. Enjoy! This recipe makes more sauce than needed so save some out, then add more as desired.

Tips:

  • To make the crepes, use a non-stick skillet and cook them over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the crepes will brown too quickly and won't be cooked through.
  • Make sure the crepes are thin and evenly cooked. If they are too thick, they will be difficult to fold and fill.
  • For the filling, use fresh spinach and mushrooms. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach that has been thawed and squeezed dry.
  • Season the filling with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as dried oregano or basil.
  • When filling the crepes, place the filling in a line down the center of the crepe. Then, fold the sides of the crepe over the filling and roll it up.
  • To make the sauce, use a heavy saucepan and cook the sauce over medium heat. Stir the sauce constantly to prevent it from burning.
  • Serve the crepes immediately, topped with the sauce.

Conclusion:

This chicken Florentine crepe recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. The crepes are thin and tender, and the filling is creamy and flavorful. The sauce is rich and decadent, and it perfectly complements the crepes. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
