Double Garlic Chicken Crêpes

These crêpes are wonderfully tasty with sweet, well-blended flavours that even the finicky eaters on my guest list enjoy. The double dose of garlic comes from sweet oven roasted garlic and thick, rich Skotidakis Tzatziki.

Garlicky Chicken Crêpes


Ingredients:
  • 1 batch crêpe batter
  • 150 g chèvre
  • 2/3 cup tzatziki
  • 1 oven roasted garlic
  • 7 sun-dried tomato halves
  • 1 large yellow onion
  • 1 red pepper
  • 1 lb cooked chicken breast
  • olive oil for frying vegetables
  • butter for frying crêpes

Directions:

Roast garlic.
Prepare crêpe batter.
While batter is chilling, prepare the filling:

Dice the sun-dried tomatoes.
Remove oven roasted garlic flesh from the skin.
Beat together chèvre and tzatziki until smooth.
Add garlic and tomato and mix until well blended.

Stir Frying Veggies for Garlicky Chicken Crêpes

Dice chicken.
Add chicken and sauce to the pan with the vegetables.
Mix well and cook gently -- just enough to warm the filling through.
