Ingredients

Techniques
- 1 tbsp rosemary
- thyme
- 1–2 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 whole chicken thigh
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 3 tbsp drippings from the chicken
- 1 whole eggs
- 1 whole egg yolk
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup milk
- 3–4 slices swiss cheese
Chop rosemary and thyme and crush garlic cloves. Season the chicken thigh on both sides with olive oil, salt and black pepper.
- salt
- black pepper
Sear until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side, basting with melted butter; add the herbs and garlic towards the end so they do not burn.
Pour the chicken drippings into a mixing bowl with the eggs and whisk well. Whisk in the flour and half the milk to a smooth batter, then the rest of the milk; season with salt and pepper.
Take the chicken from the oven, pour the drippings over, rest about 5 minutes, then slice.
- butter
Heat a large non-stick pan on medium, coat with a little butter, pour in just enough batter to cover the bottom, swirl to spread and cook about 1 to 2 minutes.
When it slides freely, flip and cook 30 seconds to a minute more, then flip once more and turn off the heat.
Cooking the crepes
- chives
Fill with Swiss cheese, sliced chicken and another layer of Swiss; bake, broil or torch the top so the cheese melts, fold over the filling, garnish with sliced chives and plate.
