👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 11. Cut the chicken into cubes, put them in a bowl and mix in 3/4 of the pesto. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least half an hour. Stir occasionally so the flavours distribute well.2. Meanwhile heat a good splash of oil in a grill pan and season liberally with salt and pepper. Place the tomatoes in the pan: instead of removing them from the vine and throwing the stalk away, leave them on — it looks much nicer on the plate later 😉 Grill the tomatoes until they burst and absorb the oil and herbs. Then set them, pan and all, aside off the heat.
