    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt, then add the eggs.

    2

    Gradually pour in the milk and sparkling water, whisking constantly until you have a smooth batter.

    3

    Let the batter rest for 15-20 minutes to allow the ingredients to combine well.

    4

    Lightly grease a skillet with oil and heat over medium heat.

    5

    Pour a ladleful of batter into the skillet, spreading it evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the edges start to lift from the pan, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.

    6

    Repeat the process with the remaining batter, re-oiling the skillet as needed.

    7

    For the filling, dice the chicken breast into small cubes. In a skillet with a little oil, sauté the chicken over medium heat until golden brown.

    8

    Add the basil pesto and mix well with the chicken, then cook for another 2-3 minutes.

    9

    Stir in the sour cream and ground black pepper, then let it simmer until slightly thickened.

    10

    Fill the prepared crepes with the pesto chicken mixture, then fold or roll them up.

    11

    Place the filled crepes in a baking dish, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is lightly golden.

    12

    Serve fresh, garnished with chopped fresh basil.
