1. Prepare the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk flour, eggs, milk, water, melted butter, and spices until smooth. Let the batter rest for 10–15 minutes.

2. Cook Crepes: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour a thin layer of batter and cook for about 1 minute per side until lightly golden.

3. Make the Filling: In a skillet, sauté the onion until soft. Add the chicken and cook until fully browned and no longer pink.

4. Simmer: Stir in the spices and tomato sauce. Let it simmer for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

5. Assemble: Place a portion of the chicken filling and a sprinkle of cheese in the center of each crepe. Fold or roll them up.

6. Bake: Arrange the crepes in a baking dish. Top with extra cheese and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10–15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
