Fish With Apricot Salsa Arugula Salad Recipes

ROASTED TROUT WITH ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees F. Brush 2 rimmed baking sheets with olive oil. Pat the fish dry with paper towels and transfer to the baking sheets; open so the fish is skin-side down. Drizzle half of the lemon juice over the fish and season with salt and pepper. Roast, switching the pans halfway through, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the arugula, radishes, celery, hearts of palm, parsley and Peppadews in a large bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon zest, the remaining lemon juice and the Peppadew brine; season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Top each fish with the salad, chives and croutons.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH PEAR, BLUE CHEESE AND APRICOT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine arugula leaves and bibb lettuce in a salad bowl. Squeeze a little lemon juice over pear slices to keep them from browning. Arrange them on top of lettuces. Top salad with blue cheese crumbles. Combine vinegar and apricot preserves. Stream in oil as you whisk dressing. Pour dressing over salad, season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and serve.

• Combine arugula, half the pistachios, and basil in a large bowl.
• Whisk together vinegars, salt and pepper, and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil.
• Cut apricots in half and remove pits. Brush cut side with remaining olive oil. Grill for about 2 minutes on the cut side, until seared but intact. Remove from the heat.
• Toss together arugula mixture, dressing and half the apricots. Arrange on a platter. Arrange the remaining apricots, goat cheese or feta and remaining pistachios over the top, and serve.
