Whip up double the savory chicken, ham, and leek crepe bake for convenient and delicious meals anytime.
Ingredients:
  • 18.20 gm olive oil
  • 1 leek, trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 1 roast chicken, skin and bones removed, meat shredded
  • 100g ham slices, coarsely chopped
  • 50g butter
  • 40.00 ml plain flour
  • 386.25 gm milk
  • 125.00 ml coarsely grated cheddar
  • 6 frozen crepes
  • 2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 125.00 ml coarsely grated mozzarella
  • Small parsley leaves, to serve
Instructions:
  • Heat your oven to 180°C.
  • Warm the oil in a small frying pan over medium heat.
  • Sauté the leek until soft and caramelized, then transfer to a spacious heatproof bowl. Mix in the chicken and ham.
  • In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat until foamy.
  • Stir in the flour and cook until mixture bubbles, about 30 seconds.
  • Take the sauce off the heat. Slowly pour in the milk while stirring. Return to medium heat and cook for 5 minutes until the sauce boils and thickens.
  • Mix in the cheddar and season with salt and pepper. Blend the sauce into the chicken mixture. Layer 4 crepes to cover the base and sides of a 20cm square oven-proof dish. Spread the chicken mixture on top. Place the remaining crepes on top, cutting as needed to fit.
  • Layer the tomato slices, allowing them to overlap slightly, then generously sprinkle the mozzarella on top.
  • Bake until the mozzarella is gooey, about 30 minutes. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley leaves.
