Sautéed Arugula with Pancetta and Garlic
Sautéed Arugula with Pancetta and Garlic
Sauté 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.

Grilled Chicken, Peach and Arugula Salad
Grilled Chicken, Peach and Arugula Salad
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Whisk 1/4 cup olive oil, balsamic vinegar, shallot, Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a bowl until dressing is well mixed. Brush 1 teaspoon oil onto cut-side of peaches. Place peaches, cut-side down, onto grill and cook until heated through, about 4 minutes. Transfer peaches to a plate. Brush remaining oil onto both sides of chicken breasts and season with salt. Cook chicken on grill until no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Slice chicken into thin pieces and cut peaches into 1/2-inch thick pieces. Toss arugula and dressing together in a bowl. Divide dressed arugula among plates; top with peaches and chicken.

Arugula with Orzo and Heirloom Tomatoes
Arugula with Orzo and Heirloom Tomatoes
Cook the orzo in salted water according to package directions. Drain and reserve. Chop the arugula roughly. If the leaves are small or if it is baby arugula, no need to chop at all. Heat a large sauté pan over medium high heat and add a little olive oil. When it is hot, cook the arugula handful by handful, letting the first few handfuls wilt completely, and leaving the last few barely cooked.
Add the basil, tomatoes, cheese, and orzo with the last handful of arugula. Turn the heat to high and cook for another minute or two – until everything is hot. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately.
