3 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons flour
2 cups chicken stock
2 large chicken breasts, boned
clarified butter
6 tablespoons dried tarragon
freshly ground salt, to taste

6 tablespoons grated cheese
4 slices prosciutto
3 teaspoons caviar (optional)

Directions:

Pour a good amount of pancake batter into pan to make heavy pancakes. When one side is cooked, do not flip. Add 2 tablespoons grated cheese to uncooked side and place under broiler for a moment to brown. Repeat to make 1 more pancake.
5. Lay 1 chicken breast on the cheese side of each pancake. Cover chicken with prosciutto and fold pancake over to form a semi-circle.
