Servings 4 servings
Calories 386kcal
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
- 8 slices rustic white bread or any kind of bread you like
- 1 1/3 cups curried chicken salad or your favorite creamy chicken salad (see Notes)
Instructions
- Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons of butter on 1 side of each slice of bread.
- Spread 1/4 to 1/3 cup chicken salad on top of the butter on 4 slices of bread.
- Put the remaining buttered bread slices (butter-side-down) on top of the chicken salad to form sandwiches.
- Trim off the crusts, and cut the sandwiches into rectangles or diamonds. You want each finger sandwich to be 2 to 3-bites; depending on the size of your bread, you should get 2 to 4 finger sandwiches from each regular sandwich.
Notes
- Storage: You can store chicken salad tea sandwiches layered between pieces of parchment paper in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Serving Size: If you're serving finger sandwiches as an appetizer or as part of an afternoon tea spread, two per person is good. On the other hand, if you're serving finger sandwiches as the main course for lunch, you'll need about four per person.
- Filling the Sandwiches: You might need a bit more or less chicken salad filling depending on the size of your bread.
