Chicken Crepes With Creamy Tarragon Sauce is a classic French dish that has been enjoyed for generations. The savory filling of chicken and broccoli cooked in sour cream, nutmeg, salt and pepper, wrapped in delicate crepes and topped with a delicious creamy tarragon sauce makes for a perfect meal for any occasion, from a fancy dinner party to a cozy family dinner. It is filling, yet not too heavy and can easily be served with a side salad or vegetables. The dish is quite easy to make, especially if the crepes are made in advance, and can also be stored for leftovers.

Instructions

1.In a large bowl, mix together cooked chicken, broccoli, sour cream, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
2.In another bowl, whisk together milk, egg, flour, margarine, salt and let sit for 15 minutes.
3.In a skillet, cook the crepes in batches by pouring about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, tilting pan to coat the bottom evenly.
4.Once the crepe is cooked through, place 1/4 cup of the chicken mixture on top of the crepe. Fold one side of the crepe over the filling, then roll the crepe up like a burrito. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.
5.To make the sauce, in a saucepan, whisk together flour, milk, and chicken broth until smooth. Add tarragon, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stirring occasionally, cook the mixture for about 10 minutes or until it thickens.
6.Pour the sauce over the chicken crepes and serve hot.
