Hassle Free Chive, Chicken, and Cabbage Pancakes

Originally, I didn't plan on making a post on this pancake because it was experimental, but after tasting it, I felt like it was blog worthy.  Sorry I don't have pictures of all of the ingredients and steps, but I can assure you that making these savory pancakes are easy as 1-2-3.  Fast, fun, cheap to make, and tasty, this pancake will have you coming back for more.  Being as versatile as it is, you'll be able to switch up the fillings to your liking with no trouble at all.
