Zucchini Cordon Bleu is a new take on the classic Italian chicken cordon bleu. It’s easy to make and the perfect choice for a light main course. It’s like a zucchini sandwich filled with cheese and ham, then breaded and fried. The result? A zucchini cordon bleu with a crispy exterior, tender bite, and a stringy cheese center.
Serve it on its own with a dip, as an accompaniment to a meaty main dish, or with a salad as a light lunch. To make it, you’ll need large round zucchini, slices of cheese, ham, eggs, flour, breadcrumbs, and oil for frying. For the best results, be sure to check out our tips below!
Advice
You can use any zucchini for this recipe – both green and yellow will work in this recipe. But make sure to use large, round zucchini. This will give you larger slices to work with.
If you want to make this dish low carb and keto friendly, you can replace the flour with almond flour and parmesan cheese in a 1:1 ratio.
Make sure to use an oil that is suitable for frying at higher temperatures. These include canola, peanut, sunflower, or corn oil. If you want to reuse the oil, let it cool and strain it. You can use it several more times. Don’t heat your oil too much, or the cordon bleu’s breading will burn before the zucchini is cooked. Use a thermometer to heat the oil to about 350°F.
Don’t like frying? Bake them! Place the breaded zucchini on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Bake for 25 minutes at 425°F, turning halfway through cooking.
You can also cook the zucchini cordon bleu in the Airfryer. Place the breaded zucchini in the Airfryer basket and spray with cooking oil spray. Air fry for 25 minutes at 375°F, flipping halfway through cooking.
