Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1.25 cups milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
- 2 cups cooked turkey breast, shredded
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 teaspoons olive oil or butter (for the skillet)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, and 1 tablespoon of chives until smooth. Ensure there are no lumps by using a fine-mesh sieve if needed.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with olive oil or butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the crepe batter onto the skillet. Swirl the pan to spread the batter thinly and evenly into a circle.
Cook the crepe for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the underside is lightly golden. Flip the crepe and cook the other side for an additional 30 seconds. Remove to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking cooked crepes with a piece of wax paper in between.
In a separate bowl, combine the shredded turkey, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, remaining 1 tablespoon of chives, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
To assemble, place 2-3 tablespoons of the turkey filling in the center of a crepe. Fold the edges over the filling to form a neat parcel or roll it up like a burrito.
Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
Optional: Place the filled crepes in a lightly greased baking dish and warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10 minutes until the filling is melted and thoroughly warmed.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional chives if desired.
