With cheese

Chicken filling for pancakes can even be prepared according to the principle of the popular Bechamel sauce. Then its basis becomes milk and cream. Mushrooms and any hard/semi-hard cheese are also added to the filling. Both Parmesan and the more familiar “Dutch”/“Russian” are suitable for this.

Composition of ingredients

For the dish you need to take:

• chicken fillet – 450-500 g;
• mushrooms – 280-300 g;
• onion – 2 heads;
• butter – 55-60 g;
• flour – 1-1.5 tbsp. l.;
• milk and heavy cream - ½ tbsp each;
• cheese (any hard/semi-hard) – 65-70 g;
• salt.

Almost any mushroom is suitable for this recipe. But the easiest way is to take champignons, since they are the most accessible and are sold in supermarkets at any time of the year. In addition, they are convenient to handle.

Step-by-step cooking process

Cooking steps:

1. First, chop the peeled onion into small cubes, and then pour it into a frying pan with hot oil. It will fry until soft.

2. While the onions are cooking, you can work on the rest of the ingredients. The mushrooms need to be lightly washed, removed from the top thin skin and chopped into slices. Fresh chicken - cut into medium-sized slices.
3. Next, you should add the prepared products to the onion, and fry the ingredients together until they are completely cooked. The chicken should end up lightly browned on the outside and well cooked on the inside.
4. The next step is to prepare the sauce for the filling. For it, you need to melt the butter in a separate frying pan over low heat. Afterwards, add flour to the fat and immediately mix everything thoroughly. It is convenient to use a whisk during the process.
5. When there are no flour lumps left in the mass, you need to pour the ingredients with a mixture of cream and milk.
6. After mixing the ingredients again, you can add salt to taste. You can also use any spices to your liking.
7. Next, the sauce needs to be heated for a few more minutes, stirring frequently with a whisk. You can remove it from the heat only after thickening.
8. Half of the resulting mass will then need to be mixed with the chicken and mushrooms prepared above, as well as coarsely grated cheese.

This will be the filling for the pancakes. The rest of the sauce will be used to decorate them.

How to serve a dish

You need to stuff the pancakes with the finished filling and wrap them in envelopes or tubes. Afterwards, pour over the remaining sauce, sprinkle with a pinch of grated cheese and bake for about a quarter of an hour in the oven.

Another option is to simply heat the treats in the microwave.

With garlic

To prevent the chicken filling from turning out bland, you should try cooking it with the addition of garlic and pickled cucumbers. You can also add eggs and green peas to the mixture with the poultry.

Composition of ingredients

For the dish you need to take:

• chicken breast – 2 pcs.;
• eggs – 3 pcs.;
• pickled cucumbers – 2 pcs.;
• green peas – 230-250 g;
• onion – 1/3 pcs.;
• garlic – 3 cloves;
• mayonnaise and salt.

Step-by-step cooking process

The cooking process includes several stages:

1. First, you will need to boil the chicken meat and eggs. This must be done in different pans. Eggs until the yolk is firm, poultry until completely cooked.

2. Afterwards, both products need to be cooled and crushed. You can grate them or chop them very finely.
3. For this recipe, onions will be used fresh. Therefore, those who do not like the bright onion smell in the dish can pour boiling water over the chopped vegetable. And after peeling it, it is necessary to cut it into small cubes.
4. Pickled cucumbers should be chopped in the same way. And peeled garlic - pass through a press or finely grate.
5. All that remains is to drain the marinade from the green peas.

Next, you will need to mix all the filling components prepared above in a common bowl, add salt and season them with mayonnaise.

How to serve a dish

Pancakes with the resulting filling can be folded into envelopes or rolled into tubes. They taste best warm. Meat from any part of the chicken is suitable for filling pancakes. But you can get treats with minimal calorie content if you use breast fillet. To prevent the chicken from turning out bland, do not forget about spices and aromatic herbs. Turmeric, various types of garlic, dried dill, and oregano go well with poultry.
