Heat 1½ tbsp oil in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until golden and fragrant. Stir in the chilli jam and lime juice to make a dressing; set aside off the heat.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Toss the asparagus in the remaining ½ tbsp oil and add to the pan. Cook for 6-7 minutes, shaking the pan regularly, until charred in places and tender. Divide between plates with the chicory and tomatoes.
Return the frying pan to a medium heat and add the halloumi slices. Fry for about 1 minute on each side until golden. Divide between plates and spoon over the dressing. Scatter with the pumpkin seeds and serve immediately.
