  • Heat up a crepe pan on medium heat. Using a ladle make crepes one by one, turning it over to get each side browned up. (This process goes very quickly!)

  • Crepes with chicken are usually served with sour cream.
  • To reheat crepes, melt unsalted butter in a pan and brown up each side of the rolled crepes giving it a bit of a golden brown color.
