Caprese Skewers With Pesto
- 1 bunch basil, leaves picked
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup pine nuts
- 1 clove garlic, coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 10 oz vine-ripened cherry tomatoes
- 8 oz bocconcini (baby mozzarella)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 8 None skewers (soaked, if bamboo)
- Heat a grill pan on medium-high heat or preheat the grill to medium.
- To make pesto, place basil, Parmesan cheese, nuts and garlic in a food processor. Pulse until well chopped. With motor running, gradually pour in oil through chute, until well combined and smooth.
- Thread tomatoes and bocconcini alternatively onto skewers. Drizzle with oil and season to taste.
- Cook skewers 1-2 mins each side, until tomatoes blister slightly and cheese begins to soften. Serve drizzled with a little pesto.
