For the sauce: blend the poblano pepper, onion, garlic, cilantro, sour cream, chicken broth, and enough salt until well integrated. Melt the butter in a pot over medium heat and pour in the sauce. Then, cook the sauce for 10 minutes, stirring constantly until it thickens slightly. Set aside. Prepare the crepe batter! Blend the eggs, flour, milk, salt, sugar, and butter until well combined. Heat a crepe pan or a non-stick skillet to the size you want your crepes. Grease with cooking spray, pour a little of the crepe mixture, and move it until it completely covers the surface of the pan, making it as thin as possible.

Cook the crepes over medium-low heat for at least 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 45 seconds. Repeat until the crepe batter is finished. Fill the crepes with the shredded chicken, folding them in a fan shape. Then, arrange the crepes in a rectangular baking dish, pour the sauce over the crepes, and top with manchego cheese. Bake the Swiss crepes at 180 °C for 10 minutes. Take the Swiss crepes out of the oven, garnish with cilantro leaves, and enjoy. If desired, you can also add onion to serve the savory crepes.
