Steps

6 servings

1

Wash and trim the zucchini. Using a vegetable peeler, slice them lengthwise into thin strips and set aside.
2

Do not discard the trimmed ends of the zucchini. Blend them in a food processor for a few minutes with the prepared breading mix.
3

Transfer the mixture to a small bowl, season with salt and pepper, and add enough olive oil to combine, mixing well.
4

Cut the scamorza cheese into sticks or cubes, as you prefer.
5

Brush a baking dish with olive oil and preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) on convection setting.
6

On your work surface, lay a slice of zucchini, top with a slice of speck, a generous pinch of the breading mixture, and a piece of scamorza at one end of the slice.
7

Starting at the end with the cheese, roll up the zucchini slice to form a roll. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, placing the rolls side by side in the baking dish and securing with wooden toothpicks if needed.
8

Sprinkle the rolls in the baking dish with Parmesan cheese and then breadcrumbs. Drizzle with a little olive oil and bake for the recommended time.
9

Serve the zucchini rolls with speck and scamorza warm or at room temperature—they’re delicious either way.
