Dainty chicken and cucumber sandwich fingers always seem to be one of the first things gobbled up at any party! Here is a new twist on them using delicious Santa Rosa smoked chicken, still just as moorish and equally as popular!
Ingredients
2 packets | Santa Rosa Shredded Chicken |
2 | Finely chopped spring onion |
435 g | Best Foods Mayonnaise |
1 cup | Fresh mint, finely chopped |
1 | Lemon, juiced |
½ tsp | Cracked black pepper |
1 loaf | Sandwich bread, white or multi-grain |
1 | Cucumber, thinly sliced into rounds |
½ cup | Fresh tarragon, finely chopped |
½ cup | Fresh parsley, finely chopped |
½ cup | Fresh chives, finely chopped |
Directions
- Finely chop up the smoked chicken and place it into a large bowl. Add the spring onions, herbs, mayo, lemon juice and a couple of twists of cracked pepper. Combine together well.
- To assemble place 4-6 slices of bread onto a board and gently smear the chicken filling sparingly onto each piece of bread. Place the cucumber slices onto one half and then take the slice without cucumber and place it on top to make a sandwich. Repeat this process until all the filling is used.
- Stack the sandwiches 2-3 high and gently slice off all the crusts. Now cut them evenly through the middle to create 2 party fingers.
Let’s serve
Assemble onto a platter and keep in the refrigerator covered with a damp handee towel and cling film until required.
They will stay fresh for a day or so and can easily be made a day ahead. Making them a day or two ahead of time may require omitting the cucumber as this has a tendency to make them go soggy.
