Chicken, cream and aubergine pesto...

I recently discovered chargrilled aubergine pesto. Mmm.

I am having a few friends over for dinner tomorrow. Because I have to put DS to bed between work and their arrival, I need to make something that requires minimal intervention tomorrow.

I was thinking chicken baked in cream and pesto, with baked risotto balls and either more aubergine or a rocket salad.

A few questions:

at what point would I add pesto, as I don't want it to separate. smear in chicken first, then add more to the cream just before serving? Dry bake chicken and then pour over pestoy cream?

would risotto balls be too heavy with creamy chicken? If so, would giant cous cous be better?

Any aubergine recipes that can be prepared ahead?

TIA

Blush I wish I could claim the recipe, but it is Sacla readymade one. I really really recommend it though!
