Sautéed Arugula
Sautéed Arugula
Ingredients
- 1 bag arugula
- 2 garlic cloves (thinly sliced)
- 1 lemon (zest and squeeze)
- 1 gulp clover honey
- 3 Tbs. peanut oil
- Sea salt
- 2 “turns” fresh cracked pepper
Instructions
- Heat peanut oil on med high heat in a carbon steel or cast iron pan. Once it begins to smoke quickly add your garlic to the pan. Almost immediately add the arugula before the garlic has time to caramelize. Once the arugula has wilted down add your lemon juice, honey, salt and cracked pepper. (The arugula is naturally a bit spicy so take that into consideration when it comes to the pepper.) Garnish with the lemon zest. Toasted almonds add a nice textural contrast also when serving.
