None None FOR THE CHICKEN AND CELERY FILLING
1 None boneless skinless chicken breast
1 slice lemon
None None A few black peppercorns
2 sticks celery
2 tbsp mayonnaise
None None FOR THE MINTED PEA FILLING
1 cup frozen peas
3 tbsp chopped fresh mint
2 tbsp mayonnaise
None None FOR THE SANDWICHES
12 slices white sandwich bread
12 slices whole wheat sandwich bread
½ tbsp (1 1/2 sticks) butter, softened
None None Curly-leaf parsley, to garnish

1
For the chicken and celery filling, place the chicken breast, lemon and peppercorns into a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring slowly to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 1 min. Remove from the heat. Leave the chicken breast to cool in the water, then drain it (keep the water for another use - such as a light chicken stock).
2
Finely chop the celery and chicken. Mix with the mayonnaise to a spreadable paste. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
3
For the minted pea filling, place the frozen peas into a small saucepan with 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5 mins until the peas are tender. Drain off any water and leave to cool. Puree the peas in a small food processor with the chopped mint and the mayonnaise. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
4
Spread each slice of bread with butter right to the edges, even though you will be trimming the crusts. Spread on a decent layer of butter (not lavish, but visible) as it waterproofs the bread and stops the fillings from making it soggy.
5
Use the chicken and celery filling in the whole wheat bread and the minted peas in the white bread. Trim off all the crusts and cut each square sandwich into 4 triangles.
6
Garnish with curly parsley. Cover with a damp cloth until ready to serve.
