Mother's day special : Hollywoods famous poached chicken sandwiches

Ok so I am really trying to make up for my slack blogging now.... this recipe is for my famous poached chicken sandwiches. I get asked to make these time and time again.  They are perfect for a picnic (we had them on our wedding day when at the photo location :) ) and would be ideal to make this mothers day.
They are SO EASY!!!

Boil chicken breast (as much as you require for the amount of people you are cooking for) in vegetable stock until the chicken is well cooked through.

Remove chicken from stock and allow to cool.

Chop celery, fresh chive and fresh flat leaf parsley and place in a bowl.

Finely chop chicken and add to herbs.

Add whole egg mayonaise and sour cream until it coats the chicken. Use approx 1/2 cup mayonaise to 2 tablespoons sour cream.

Add slithered almonds (to add a nice crunch) and then season with salt and pepper.

Now add to buttered bread and slice as you wish.

Occasionally I mix things up a bit, here are a few variations:
* basil instead of chives and parsley
* seeded mustard
* add avocado

Note: this sandwich refridgerates well, so you can make it the day before required.

Hope you enjoy, my secret easy sandwich recipe is out!!!
