Prepare the stock. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Chop the leek into thin rings and quarter the mushrooms. Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic. Shape the mince into six to eight small meatballs per portion.
Heat a light drizzle of olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the meatballs and chicken for 4 - 5 minutes until evenly browned, then remove from the pan and set aside.
Melt a knob of butter in the same pan and fry the garlic, onion and leek for 1 - 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and fry for 3 - 4 minutes, then stir in the flour and fry for 1 more minute. Deglaze with the white wine vinegar, then add the stock and mix well to incorporate. Allow to thicken and reduce for 7 - 8 minutes.
Transfer the flammekueche to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Finely chop the parsley in the meantime.
Stir the chicken and half of the parsley into the sauce, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Top the flammekueche with the sauce and top with the meatballs and the cheese. Return to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Garnish the flammekueche with the rest of the parsley, then serve.
