CHICKEN PASTE OR CHICKEN TEA SANDWICH FILLING

Steps:

• In a large pot of water, place the chicken breasts. Add bay leaf, pepper corns and salt and even a stalk of celery and a carrot if handy. Bring to a boil and simer for about 45 minutes until chicken is cooked but not rubber. Drain, rinse and cool.
• If you are fortunate enough to have a splendid Kitchen Aid, use the meat grinder attachment. An old fashoind meat grinder works just as well and adds 'character' to your work. LOL Break the cooled chicken into pieces and run through the meat grinder. Put the onion and celery through as well (optional). Mix evenly. It should be very crumbley. Add enough mayonaise to bind and mix well, you want the paste to be moist but not wet. Add the rest of the ingredients to taste. Chill and enjoy on your choice of bread. Add a little more mayonaise and perhaps some cripsy bacon if you want to use it as spread for crackers. Enjoy!

With a large serrated knife, cut the sandwich diagonally in both directions to create 4 equal triangles. Repeat with the remaining bread and salad to make 16 tea sandwiches.
