These savoury pancake rolls with chicken are incredibly versatile, making them an ideal choice for various occasions.
They can be served as a delightful appetizer at a dinner party, accompanied by a tangy dipping sauce, or enjoyed as a satisfying main course, paired with a fresh side salad.
They are also perfect for lunchboxes or on-the-go meals, as their convenient size and portability make them easy to pack and enjoy.
For the filling, cut the chicken into small pieces and heat on the hob in a frying pan until cooked through. Next, chop the mushrooms and the onion and heat on the hob with the chicken until cooked. Add the Campbell’s Cream of Chicken soup and combine together until bubbling. Leave the mixture on a very low heat.
Whisk together the eggs, flour, milk and pinch of salt until you have a smooth pancake batter. Add some oil to a frying pan and pour a quarter of the mix into the pan. Swirl around the pan to form a perfect circle and cook gently on both sides for about 1-2 minutes or so, checking underneath to prevent burning. Once cooked, set aside and repeat three more times.
Spoon the filling evenly into the four pancakes, folding them lightly. Place them lined up together into a medium sized oven dish and sprinkle generously with the parmesan cheese. Chop up and sprinkle with a few chives.
Place the oven dish under the grill until the cheese has melted. Serve with potato wedges or a side salad.
