  • How do you make chicken filling for crepes?
  • Rinse the chicken fillet and cut it into thin, small strips. Peel and rinse the onion, then slice it into thin half-rings. Pour the vegetable oil into a skillet and heat it over medium. Add the onion and sauté for 2 minutes. Add the chicken strips and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring so nothing sticks. Finely chop your herbs (dill, parsley, cilantro — whatever you have on hand), add them to the skillet along with the salt and dried basil, and stir. If any liquid is left in the pan by the time the chicken is done, sprinkle in a little flour and cook another 10–20 seconds to thicken. Let the filling cool slightly, then use it to fill your crepes. Enjoy!
  • Every oil is good only up to a certain point — its smoke point, above which it starts to burn and forms harmful compounds, including carcinogens. Choose an oil with a high smoke point for frying.
  • Keep in mind that the right pan matters, too: even the best recipe can be ruined by the wrong skillet.
  • Since everyone's tolerance for salt, sweetness, bitterness, heat, and acidity is different, always adjust the spices and seasonings to your own taste. If you're using a seasoning for the first time, go easy — some, like chili pepper, are especially easy to overdo.
