When I organized food and nutrition training for our county 4-Hâers, we had cooking demonstrations representing different countries. We chose crepes for France, and everyone really loved them with this chicken broccoli filling. Ingredients:
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk |
2 eggs |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
filling: |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 cups chicken broth |
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
3 cups (12 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese, divided |
2 cups (16 ounces) sour cream |
2 packages (8 ounces each) frozen broccoli spears, cooked and drained |
2-1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, beat the milk, eggs and butter. Combine flour and salt; add to egg mixture and beat until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. Heat a lightly greased 8-in. nonstick skillet. Stir batter; pour 1/4 cup into the center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to evenly coat bottom. Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Remove to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet as needed. When cool, stack crepes with waxed paper or paper towels in between.
3. In a large saucepan, melt butter. Stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in broth and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat; stir in 2 cups of cheese. Cook and stir for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Remove from the heat; stir in sour cream until smooth.
4. Place four broccoli spears and 1/3 cup of chicken down the center of each crepe; top with 1/3 cup cheese sauce. Roll up and place seam side down in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Pour remaining cheese sauce over crepes; sprinkle with remaining cheese.
5. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 8 crepes.
