Cooking method
-
Step 1:
Gather all the ingredients for the salad. Go for a larger chicken fillet so the salad comes out heartier. If your eggs are large, two are enough; if they're small, use 3. The eggs and milk should be at room temperature, so take them out of the refrigerator ahead of time.
-
Step 2:
Wash and dry the chicken fillet, then boil it in salted water until cooked through. Cut the cooked fillet into small or medium cubes.
-
Step 3:
Drain the canned corn in a colander and let the water run off. Pat the kernels dry.
-
Step 4:
Whisk the eggs with the milk, using a fork or a whisk, until smooth. You can skip the milk altogether or swap it for mayonnaise or heavy cream. Milk or cream makes the crêpes more delicate in flavor and texture; mayonnaise makes them slightly salty and a bit more springy. Choose whichever result you prefer.
-
Step 5:
Grease a skillet with vegetable oil. Pour in half the egg mixture and fry the crêpe on both sides until set. In my experience these are easier to make in a small skillet. Unlike regular flour pancakes, egg crêpes are delicate, and a large one can tear when you flip it.
-
Step 6:
Move the finished crêpe to a plate. Grease the skillet again and fry the second crêpe. Let the crêpes cool.
-
Step 7:
Stack the egg crêpes on top of each other and cut them into thin strips.
-
Step 8:
In a salad bowl, combine the chicken, egg strips, and canned corn. Season with salt and pepper and dress with mayonnaise. Mix gently. If you like, add some chopped parsley or dill.
-
Step 9:
Serve the salad right away or chill it in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Enjoy!
- To make the salad heartier, add some canned or lightly sautéed mushrooms.
