Gluten Free Turkey Cordon Bleu

This gluten free turkey cordon bleu is delicious for dinner with a salad and veggies. But I also can picture serving this on toothpicks as an hors d’oeuvre at a party. Enjoy!

Cordon bleu means blue ribbon in French. My light version of gluten free turkey cordon bleu is baked rather than fried.

Then I slice each roulade to reveal spirals of moist breaded turkey, melted cheese and ribbons of sweet ham.

*Free printable recipe card is available at the end of the post.

Melt your butter and set aside in a small bowl.

Combine your bread crumbs and parmesan cheese in another dish.

Now spread mustard evenly down the center of each cutlet. Season each with seasoned salt and thyme. Then layer each with ham and swiss cheese.

Roll up, jelly-roll style.

Then carefully roll in the melted butter and then roll in the bread crumb mixture.

Place in a baking dish seam side down and pop in your preheated oven for about thirty-five minutes.

Pro tips and recipe notes

• I recommend pounding each turkey cutlet with a meat tenderizer because this cut can have a tendency to be a little tough. However, a few whacks with the mallet softens the fibers of the turkey, and it will turn out nice and tender.
• I used seasoned salt in this recipe. Seasoned salt can contain paprika, turmeric, onion, garlic, and sugar. You can go with seasoned salt or any combination of spices you prefer.
• Slice each roulade to reveal spirals of moist breaded turkey, melted cheese and ribbons of sweet ham.
• Top with gravy prepared from Maxwell’s Kitchen gluten free turkey gravy mix or follow this quick easy recipe for velvety smooth homemade gravy.

Who can resist? This dish is easily a first prize winning meal.
