A creamy chicken filling flavored with bacon and leeks, then wrapped in tender potato pancakes, this hearty recipe is light but also filling and fabulous.
Ingredients:
1 medium potato, peeled and grated
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup mashed potato (made with fat-free milk)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
filling:
2 bacon strips, chopped
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 medium leek (white portion only), chopped
1/4 cup half-and-half cream
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup fat-free milk
2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Place grated potato in a colander to drain; squeeze to remove excess liquid. Pat dry. In a large bowl, combine the grated potato, milk, flour, mashed potato, salt and pepper. Let stand for 20 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Add mushrooms and leek; cook until tender. Gradually add cream. Whisk together flour and milk; add to pan. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in the chicken, salt and pepper; heat through. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
3. Coat another large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Pour 3/4 cup batter into center of skillet; lift and tilt pan to coat bottom evenly. Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 2-3 minutes longer. Remove and keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter, coating skillet with cooking spray as needed.
4. Spoon filling onto pancakes. Yield: 4 servings.
