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
1 cup milk
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.

  • Beat 1 cup milk, 3/4 cup flour, egg, 1 tablespoon melted butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and baking powder together in a bowl to make crepe batter.
  • 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-MUSHROOM CREPE FILLING



Chicken-Mushroom Crepe Filling image

This recipe is from an old weight watchers cook book and though it has been a few years since I last made I will be doing tomorrow night as it is an easy tea and it can also be frozen to be used later. The original recipe uses 360 grams of cooked chicken but I usually use a small cooked chook bought from the deli. I have also upped the original recipe to feed 6, so I have 2 serves for freezing. I like recipe #35049 for the crepes but would omit the sugar for this recipe.

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 12 crepes

Number Of Ingredients 32

1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon leaves
12 Crepes, recipe follows
1 tablespoon chopped green onions
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup grated Gruyere
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock, hot
3/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon milk
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch dice
Essence, recipe follows
1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
8 ounces mushrooms (such as button and shiitake), stems trimmed, wiped clean, and roughly chopped
1/4 pound baked ham, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
1/4 cup dry sherry
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
Pinch salt
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
6 teaspoons melted unsalted butter
3 large eggs, beaten
3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons whole milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a glass 9 by 13-inch baking dish and set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened into a pale blond roux, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the hot stock in a steady stream, whisking to incorporate. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently with a heavy wooden spoon until thick. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper, and stir to incorporate. Slowly whisk in the cream and simmer, stirring, until well incorporated and thickened. Remove from the heat and very lightly film the top with the milk to prevent a skin from forming.
  • In a large saute pan or skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken, season lightly with Essence, and cook, stirring, until lightly browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon. To the fat and juices in the pan add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and cook, stirring, until they have given off their water and are starting to color, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the ham and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the sherry and bring to a boil, stirring to deglaze the pan. Add the tarragon and green onions, and return the chicken to the pan. Stir well to blend and cook until the sherry has evaporated. Reduce the heat to low and stir in enough of the cream sauce to bind and thicken, 1 to 1 1/2 cups. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
  • Place the crepes on a work surface. One at a time, spoon the filling along the bottom third of each crepe, about 3 tablespoons per crepe, and roll into a cylinder to enclose the filling. Place, seam side down, in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining crepes.
  • To the remaining cream sauce, add the Gruyere and stir to incorporate. Spoon the sauce evenly over the crepes. (NOTE: The crepes can be tightly covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated for 1 day or frozen for 3 days at this point. Bring to room temperature before baking.)
  • Bake until warmed through and the top starts to become bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with the Parmesan. Bake until the cheese is melted and the topping is golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and place in a chafing dish holder or on trivets. Serve hot, 1 to 2 crepes per person.
  • Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
  • Recipe from "New New Orleans Cooking", by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch. Published by William and Morrow, 1993.
  • Whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, and 4 1/2 teaspoons of the butter to form a smooth, thin batter. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before proceeding.
  • Heat a heavy 6-inch skillet or crepe pan over medium-high heat. When hot, brush with a light coating of the remaining butter. Ladle about 1/4 cup of crepe batter into the pan, tilting the skillet to evenly coat the pan with batter. Cook until golden brown on the bottom and the top begins to look dry, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spatula, carefully turn the crepe and cook on the second side just until the bottom colors slightly, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with waxed paper to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter.
  • Assemble as directed in the Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Crepes. (Alternatively, make ahead and when cool, layer between sheets of waxed paper and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until ready to use, up to 3 days.)

Tips for Making Chicken Mushroom Crepe Filling:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh mushrooms, chicken, and vegetables will give your filling the best flavor.
  • Cook the chicken and mushrooms thoroughly: This will help to prevent foodborne illness and ensure that the filling is safe to eat.
  • Don't overcook the filling: Overcooked filling will be dry and tough.
  • Season the filling to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to your liking.
  • Let the filling cool before using it: This will help to prevent the crepes from tearing when you fill them.

Conclusion:

Chicken mushroom crepe filling is a delicious and versatile filling that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for crepes, omelets, quiches, and casseroles. With its savory flavor and creamy texture, chicken mushroom crepe filling is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
