Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 teaspoons Curry powder
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 pieces Green onions, finely sliced
- 0.25 cup Raisins or dried cranberries (optional)
- 12 slices Sliced bread (white or whole wheat)
- 2 tablespoons Softened butter
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, curry powder, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients form a smooth and creamy dressing.
Add the shredded chicken, green onions, and raisins (if using) to the curry dressing. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated.
Lay the slices of bread on a clean surface, and lightly spread a thin layer of softened butter on each slice. This helps prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
Spread a generous layer of the curried chicken mixture onto six slices of bread. Top with the remaining six slices of bread to form sandwiches.
Using a sharp knife, carefully trim the crusts from each sandwich. Then, cut each sandwich into four small triangles or squares, depending on your preference.
Arrange the tea sandwiches on a serving platter. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. The sandwiches are best enjoyed the same day.
