Seafood crepes filled with a creamy béchamel sauce and topped with Swiss cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 cups flour
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 cups milk
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 6 medium mushrooms, chopped
- 3 tablespoons green onions, sliced
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 1/2 cups cooked seafood (lobster, crab, scallops, shrimp), chopped
- 8 ounces cream cheese, cubed
- 1/3 cup half-and-half
- 3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice or seafood/chicken broth
- 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder in a mixing bowl.
- Add the milk, eggs, and melted butter, then blend until smooth.
- Heat an 8-inch skillet over medium heat and lightly brush with butter.
- Pour a scant 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, swirling to coat evenly.
- Cook until the top looks dry and the bottom is lightly browned, then flip and cook the other side.
- Stack finished crepes on a plate, placing wax paper between each crepe if stacking.
- Sauté the mushrooms and green onions in butter until tender.
- Add the seafood, cream cheese, half-and-half, parsley, and lemon juice or broth.
- Stir over medium heat until the cream cheese melts and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place about 1/4 cup of the filling onto each crepe, roll them up, and arrange seam-side down in a baking dish.
- Sprinkle shredded Swiss cheese over the top.
- Bake for 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the crepes are heated through.
Notes
- Make sure to use cooked seafood for the filling.
- Feel free to use a mix of seafood based on your preference.
- Stacking crepes with wax paper prevents them from sticking together.
