Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley or cilantro
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and salt until the batter is smooth and lump-free. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
While the batter rests, shred the cooked chicken breast and place it into a bowl.
Halve and pit the avocado, then scoop out the flesh and mash it slightly. Add the avocado to the bowl with the chicken.
Mix the chicken and avocado with shredded mozzarella cheese, minced garlic, lime juice, and chopped parsley or cilantro. Stir together and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with olive oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the skillet and swirl it around to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges lift slightly and the bottom is golden brown, then carefully flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Transfer the cooked crepe to a plate and cover with a towel to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
To assemble, place a crepe on a clean work surface and spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the chicken and avocado mixture in the center. Fold the sides over to encase the filling or roll it into a cylinder.
Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
Optionally, drizzle sour cream over the top or serve it on the side for dipping. Garnish with additional fresh parsley or cilantro.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
