Steps:
- In a blender or food processor blend Caesar Dressing, rinsed cilantro (stems and all!), chili sauce and the lime juice. Blend for 2 minutes or until completely blended and green. If you can, let it sit in the refrigerator for a couple hours or more so the flavors come out.
- Chop the romaine into bite-size pieces and put into a large bowl. Throw in thawed corn, red onion and rinsed beans. Crunch up the chips so they are in smaller pieces, but don't add the chips to the salad until you are right about to serve it.
- Once you are about to serve it add the dressing and the chips and toss together.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the cilantro pesto: Add the cilantro, pine nuts, Parmesan, lemon juice and garlic to a food processor and pulse until the ingredients are roughly chopped, 4 to 5 times. With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the oil through the lid opening. Process to desired consistency; you can make the sauce completely smooth or leave it fairly chunky.
- For the roasted tomatoes: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and add the tomatoes and shallot. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the tomatoes start to break down and brown slightly, about 15 minutes. Let cool.
- For the salad: In a large bowl, combine the pasta, chicken, tomatoes and pesto and toss. Garnish with shaved Parmesan and a few cilantro leaves and serve.
