Chicken, Mushroom, and Cheese Crepes
Thin crepes with a savory filling, made with milk. You can serve them with sour cream, though I like them best with a cup of sweet black tea — that's the perfect pairing in my book, but everyone's taste is different. The main thing is to make them, then feel free to improvise with how you serve them. A pretty modest set of ingredients yields a big batch — enough to feed 5 people if everyone has three. Enjoy!
Cooking method
-
Step 1:
Simmer the chicken leg quarter in salted water until cooked through, about 35 minutes. Remove it from the broth and let it cool.
-
Step 2:
Peel the skin off the cooled chicken, pull the meat off the bones, and chop it finely across the grain.
-
Step 3:
Wash the fresh mushrooms and chop them finely. Sauté them in a little vegetable oil over high heat, stirring, for 3 minutes, and season with a little salt.
-
Step 4:
Grate the hard cheese on the large holes of a box grater.
-
Step 5:
In a bowl, combine the prepared filling ingredients: the chicken, mushrooms, and cheese.
-
Step 6:
Make the crepe batter. Sift the flour into a bowl, add the salt, crack in the eggs, then pour in the vegetable oil, milk, and hot water.
-
Step 7:
Blend everything thoroughly with a mixer until you have a smooth, thin batter. You can also strain it through a fine sieve to make sure there are no lumps — that's what I did. The batter is ready.
-
Step 8:
Heat a skillet with a little vegetable oil, which you only add before the first crepe. Once the pan and oil are nice and hot, ladle a small amount of batter into the pan, swirling to spread it evenly across the bottom. Cook for 20–30 seconds over medium heat.
-
Step 9:
Flip the crepe over and cook for another 20–30 seconds. Repeat with the rest of the batter.
-
Step 10:
I ended up with 15 small crepes about 5 1/2 inches across. If your pan is bigger, you'll get fewer of them.
-
Step 11:
Take a crepe and spoon the filling along one edge.
-
Step 12:
Roll the crepe up into a log.
-
Step 13:
Do the same with all the crepes. Store any cooled crepes in the refrigerator.
-
Step 14:
Just before serving, pan-fry the crepes in butter for 1 minute per side over medium heat until golden — that's when the cheese melts, too.
- The batter and filling come together easily, and the crepes turn out incredibly tasty and filling.
