For the salad:

  1. To make the pesto, place the pumpkin seeds, basil, cheese, garlic, lemon juice and some salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until well combined. With the motor running, slowly stream in the olive oil and blend until everything comes together well.
  2. Place the cooked chicken in a bowl, add a few spoonfuls of pesto and toss to coat.
  3. In a bowl, toss together the remaining ingredients for your salad and divide between two serving plates. Top with the pesto chicken and add extra pesto to finish
 

Note: Parmesan can be used as an alternative to Pecorino, if you wish.
