Ingredients:
Dough:
-
- Eggs (small) – 6 pcs.
- Curd cheese (e.g., Philadelphia) – 250 g
-
- Baking soda – ½ tsp.
- Salt – ¼ tsp.
- Vegetable oil – 25 g
Filling:
-
- Chicken fillet (boiled) – 300 g
- Onion – 300 g
-
- Salt and pepper – to taste
- Dried garlic – 1 tsp.
- Chicken broth
Instructions:
- Preparing the Dough:
-
- Break the eggs into a blender bowl and add salt. If you want sweet pancakes without using sugar, add a sweetener. Today, I’m making savory pancakes, so I’ll add one teaspoon of sugar to balance the taste.
- Add the cream cheese (I use Philadelphia, but any cottage cheese will work) to the blender.
-
- Add half a teaspoon of baking soda (approximately 2 g).
- Blend the mixture until smooth.
- Pour the mixture into a bowl and add the vegetable oil. Mix well.
-
- Cooking the Pancakes:
-
- Heat a frying pan and lightly grease it with odorless vegetable oil.
- Pour the dough into the pan and spread it in an even layer.
-
- Cook the pancakes over low heat until they are beautifully golden brown on both sides.
- My frying pan has a good coating and a thick bottom with a bottom diameter of 16 cm. I do not recommend using a larger pan, as it will be difficult to flip the pancakes.
- This recipe makes about 15-16 pancakes.
-
- Preparing the Filling:
-
- Heat a frying pan and add some vegetable oil.
- Cut two medium onions into small cubes and fry until golden brown.
-
- Grind the boiled chicken fillet in a blender and add it to the fried onions.
- Reduce the heat and add spices to taste: salt, black pepper, and one teaspoon of dried garlic.
- To keep the filling moist, add a little chicken broth and stir well. Remove from heat once mixed.
-
- Assembling the Pancakes:
-
- Place the filling on each pancake and fold it into an envelope shape.
- If desired, you can also fry the filled pancakes in a pan.
-
Serving Suggestions:
-
- Serve these pancakes hot with a side of fresh salad or steamed vegetables.
- For a sweeter version, add a drizzle of sugar-free syrup or a dollop of Greek yogurt with berries.
Cooking Tips:
-
- Ensure your frying pan is well-heated and greased to prevent the pancakes from sticking.
- Use a non-stick frying pan with a thick bottom for even cooking.
- If the pancakes are hard to flip, let them cook a bit longer on one side.
Nutritional Benefits:
-
- High in protein from eggs and chicken.
- Low in carbohydrates, making them suitable for keto and low-carb diets.
- Rich in calcium from the curd cheese.
