Two of my favorites are chicken divan crepes and chicken oscar crepes. I don't remember where I got the recipes from but here they are. I always make a very rich very fattening crepe batter but any one will do. In fact, i got a couple of really interesting ones off or the epecurious internet site using a curry batter or a corn meal batter. This is my favorite:

12 crepes
