Combine the herbs in a bowl. Remove 1.5 teaspoons of the mixture to use on the outer coating later.
With the remaining herbs, add the lemon zest, garlic, and goat cheese. Mix thoroughly to combine.
Form the cheese mixture into the shape of a log. Or a ball. really, you can do any shape you like. Wrap this in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
With the herbs that you saved, add your pecans and place them on a large piece of parchment paper. I like to make the shape of my log, so I can easily coat the log with the nut mixture when I'm ready.
Once the cheese is slightly firm (not hard), take it out and roll the cheese on top of the herb/pecan mixture. Be sure to coat evenly.
Right before serving, drizzle the top with olive oil and serve with a toast baguette or your favorite crackers.
