Arugula And Garlic Sauce Recipes

SAUTEED ARUGULA

Steps:

• In frying pan, heat chicken broth and spices to boiling.
• After bringing to a boil, add the arugula, tossing gently to cover all with the broth.
• Let sit for a minute or two, stirring occasionally, until all leaves are wilted. (Additional broth may be needed to keep moist.).
• I found this to be a great salad topping, or fantastic on top of lumpy mashed potatoes.
• **For those who want a more flavor-rich side, try the following:.
• Add 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil to the pan first; heat oil and cook 1/4 cup chopped (or sliced) onion and 1 teaspoons minced garlic until onions are tender. Then proceed with the broth, arugula and spices.
• I hope this is satisfying! :).

ARUGULA PESTO

Steps:

• Turn on a food processor fitted with the steel blade, and drop in the garlic cloves. When they are chopped and adhering to the sides, stop the machine, scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the walnuts. Turn on the machine, and process until they are finely ground. Scrape down the bowl again, and add the arugula and the salt. Pulse until the arugula is finely chopped, then turn on the machine and run while you slowly drizzle in the olive oil. When the mixture is smooth, stop the machine, scrape down the sides and process for another 30 seconds or so. Scrape out into the bowl of a mortar and pestle. Grind the mixture with the pestle for a smoother texture. Work in the cheese and combine well.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH MARINATED GARLIC CLOVES

Steps:

• FOR THE GARLIC CLOVES: Remove the ends and any blemished spots from the garlic cloves and place them in a small non-reactive saucepan with balsamic vinegar to cover. Bring the vinegar to a boil. Then lower the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until the vinegar becomes syrupy and the garlic cloves soften. Remove from heat, cool and pour into a glass canning jar or heat resistant container. Use as desired in the salad below or in any salad.
• FOR THE SALAD: Wash the greens and remove any tough stems and discolored spots. Place them in a salad bowl with 3 tablespoons of the garlic cloves. Sprinkle the grated cheese on the top, drizzle with the balsamic vinegar and olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.

ROASTED VEGETABLES WITH WILTED ARUGULA AND GARLIC DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil (optional). Spread cauliflower, red, yellow and orange peppers and asparagus onto prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast in centre of preheated oven for 30-45 minutes or until lightly browned and softened.
• Garlic Dressing: In a bowl, stir together garlic, lemon rind and juice. Whisk in mayo, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and anchovy paste until smooth. Gradually add olive oil, whisking until mixture is emulsified. Stir in salt.
• Spread arugula onto platter and toss with 1 TBS of the dressing.
• Toss 3 TBS of dressing with roasted vegetables and spread over arugula. Serve salad warm or at room temperature, adding remaining salad dressing just before serving as needed.

SAUTEED ARUGULA WITH PANCETTA AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Saute the garlic and pancetta in a large skillet over medium-high heat until they begin to crisp and turn golden. If the pancetta is lean and renders little fat, add the olive oil. Add the arugula and cook, turning occasionally, until the leaves wilt, 3 to 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH GARLIC BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Make vinaigrette:
• Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt. In a bowl whisk together garlic paste, shallot, and vinegar and add oil in a stream, whisking until emulsified. Vinaigrette may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring vinaigrette to room temperature and whisk well before using.
• Trim arugula and tear leaves in half. In a bowl toss together arugula, tomatoes, and carrot.
• Just before serving, drizzle vinaigrette over salad and toss with salt and pepper to taste.
