Step 4: Assemble the Pancakes with Chicken Filling

  1. To assemble, take one of the zucchini and eggplant pancakes and spoon a generous amount of the chicken filling onto the center.
  2. Place a second pancake on top, pressing gently to create a “sandwich” with the chicken filling inside. Repeat with the remaining pancakes and filling.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

  1. Arrange the stuffed pancakes on a serving platter and garnish with fresh parsley or chives for a pop of color.
  2. Serve each pancake stack with a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream, if desired. This adds a tangy contrast that complements the flavors of the zucchini, eggplant, and chicken.

Tips for Perfect Zucchini and Eggplant Pancakes

  • Remove Excess Moisture: Squeezing out as much water as possible from the zucchini and eggplant will prevent the pancakes from becoming too soft.
  • Experiment with Spices: For a bolder flavor, try adding cumin or Italian seasoning to the pancake batter.
  • Make It Vegetarian: If you prefer a meat-free option, substitute the chicken filling with a mix of sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and feta cheese.
  • Serve with a Sauce: These pancakes pair wonderfully with tzatziki sauce or a garlic aioli for an extra burst of flavor.
