Chicken, Walnut and Watercress sandwiches

Chicken,Walnut and Watercress Sandwiches

Cocktail Menu part 5.

Makes 30

I am always surprised how quickly these disappear, the humble sandwich becomes the star of the party. The filling can be made the day before, but the sandwiches are best made on the day. My kids love the filling in wraps for lunch, makes a nice change from the ham and cheese rolls. If you can't get fresh watercress substitute it with fresh rocket.

Ingredients

2 medium BBQ chickens, meat removed and shredded
1 cup mayonnaise
3/4 chopped walnuts
3/4 cup chopped parsley
3 sticks celery finely chopped
salt and pepper to season
2 cups fresh watercress or rocket
20 slices fresh sandwich bread

Method

Combine the chicken, walnuts, parsley, mayonnaise, celery and salt and pepper in a large bowl mix well.
Lightly butter the slices of bread.
Make into sandwiches, adding the watercress or rocket.
Remove the crusts and cut into three fingers.
Arrange on serving plate.
