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.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the dish
2 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, dill, chives or mint)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

EASY CHICKEN-STUFFED CREPES



Easy Chicken-Stuffed Crepes image

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



Chicken Crepes image

A great way to use up leftover chicken! It's teamed with garlicky sauteed spinach and a rich Gruyere bechamel for the filling of these hearty crepes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Crepe Recipes

Time 35m

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

Savory Crepes
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced (1 tablespoon)
5 ounces baby spinach (5 cups, lightly packed)
Gruyere Bechamel
1 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1/2 cup Gruyere, shredded
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees with rack in center. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add garlic and cook until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add spinach and stir until wilted. Transfer to a work surface, chop, and set aside.
  • Mix 3/4 cup bechamel with chicken. Working with one at a time, place crepe on a work surface. Arrange 1/4 cup chicken mixture and 1 heaping tablespoon spinach down center of crepe; roll into a cylinder. Transfer, seam-side down, to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; assemble and arrange more crepes, leaving 1/2 inch in between each. Spoon more bechamel on top and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until bubbly, about 15 minutes. Switch oven to broiler setting and cook until browning in spots, about 5 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • Make sure the crepe batter is thin and smooth. If the batter is too thick, it will be difficult to spread evenly in the pan and will result in thick, dense crepes.
  • Use a non-stick pan or lightly greased pan to cook the crepes. This will help prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the crepes over medium heat. If the heat is too high, the crepes will brown too quickly and may burn.
  • Flip the crepes carefully. Use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the crepe and then flip it over. Be careful not to tear the crepe.
  • Fill the crepes with your favorite fillings. Some popular fillings include cheese, ham, eggs, vegetables, and fruit.
  • Serve the crepes immediately or store them in the refrigerator for later use.

Conclusion:

Chicken street crepes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be filled with a variety of ingredients, making them a great option for picky eaters. With their thin and crispy exteriors and savory fillings, chicken street crepes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
