Here is a recipe for Cilantro Pesto that I created last weekend.
2 cups cilantro
½ c roasted pine nuts
¼ c Parmesan cheese
2 tsp salt
2 tsp black pepper
6 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic
In a food processor, combined cilantro, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic. Slowly add olive oil until blended to a desired consistency.

I made a cilantro pesto chicken pizza with the recipe above with the help of Pillsbury pizza dough, a grilled chicken breast and feta cheese. Spread cilantro pesto on the pizza dough, add thin sliced chicken breast, feta cheese and a few cilantro leaves and cooked for 10 minutes at 400 degrees. It was delicioso!
