Salad Base

Herb Dressing

Method

Preparation of Arugula

  1. 1

    Wash and Dry

    Thoroughly wash the arugula under cold running water to remove any dirt or grit. Spin dry in a salad spinner or lay on a clean kitchen towel to air dry.

  2. 2

    Season the Arugula

    In a large bowl, toss the dried arugula with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Ensure it's well-oiled to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Grill the Arugula

    Place the seasoned arugula directly on the grill. Grill for about 1-2 minutes until the leaves are wilted and have grill marks. Be careful not to overcook, as arugula can become too limp.

Preparing the Herb Dressing

  1. 5

    Combine Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, mix together the fresh dill, lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, and water. Whisk until well combined.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Transfer the grilled arugula to a serving platter and drizzle the herb dressing over the top. Serve immediately.
