It should end up being a creamy sauce.

Pour the sauce into the pot of cooked chicken & mushroom.

Gently stir.

Season with salt as per taste & set aside.

Using a spatula, gently flip the crêpe over after a minute & cook the other side for about 20-25 seconds.

Remove the crêpe from the pan & place in foil to keep them warm. Repeat this process until all the batter is used.
