Ingredients You’ll Need

Crepes Batter:

• 1¼ cup milk
• ¼ cup water
• 1 cup flour
• 3 eggs
• 2 tablespoons butter
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• Oil to grease the pan

Chicken Filling:

• 400 grams boneless chicken (breast or thigh)
• ½ tablespoon garlic paste
• ½-1 tablespoon green chili (optional for spice)
• 2 tablespoons oil
• Salt to taste

White Sauce:

• 6 tablespoons oil
• 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
• 7 tablespoons plain flour
• ¼ teaspoon oregano powder
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper powder
• 1 chicken bouillon cube
• 3½ cups milk

Vegetables:

• 1 large stalk green onions, finely chopped
• 1 medium bell pepper, finely chopped
• 3-4 medium green chilies, finely chopped (optional for spice)
• 100 grams cheddar cheese for topping
• ¼ teaspoon dried oregano for garnish

How to Make Chicken Crepes

Step 1: Prepare the Batter

First, pour the milk into a blender along with the other ingredients. Blend until smooth to create a thin batter. Chill the batter in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Step 2: Cook the Chicken

In a pan, heat oil and sauté garlic and green chili paste for a minute. Add the chicken and cook covered for about 10 minutes until tender and the water has evaporated.

Step 3: Make the White Sauce

In another pan, heat oil and sauté garlic for a minute. Add flour, oregano powder, chicken bouillon cube, and pepper, cooking until fragrant. Gradually add milk, stirring to avoid lumps. Cook on low heat until the sauce thickens. Mix in the cooked chicken and vegetables. Add chopped chilies if desired for extra spice.

Step 4: Cook the Crepes

Heat a non-stick pan and grease it with a few drops of oil. Pour about ⅓ cup of batter into the pan and tilt to spread evenly. Cook for about a minute until the edges dry and turn dark, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 5: Assemble the Chicken Crepes

Place about ½ cup of the creamy chicken filling onto each crepe. Fold the top and bottom edges, then fold the sides and roll it up like a burrito. Arrange the rolled crepes in a casserole dish. Spread any remaining chicken filling on top and sprinkle with cheddar cheese.

Step 6: Bake and Serve

Heat the casserole in the oven at 300°F for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. Broil for 5 minutes until the cheese is lightly golden. Serve the chicken crepes hot and enjoy!

Tips for Perfect Chicken Crepes

• Crepe Batter: Make the batter up to 24 hours in advance.
• Assembly: Assemble the dish a day ahead and store in the fridge. Bring to room temperature before baking.
• Reheat: Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
• No Oven?: Melt the cheese in a microwave if you don’t have an oven.

Variations and Additions

While I prefer using green veggies, feel free to add mushrooms, corn, olives, jalapenos, or broccoli to your white sauce. For a cheesier crepe, mix cheese into the filling as well. You can also use leftover chicken like rotisserie. Minced fillings also work great with savory crepes.
