The perfect recipe for making the most of fresh, peppery rocket leaves for a quick and easy but sophisticated lunch. The pesto you make to use in this recipe also works really well spread on bruschetta or on grilled field mushrooms. Make it veggie by using a vegetarian version of pecorino or parmesan.
