Arugula with Tangy Tangerine Dressing

January 19, 2015

This “light as a spring breeze” salad is a wonderful dish to add a bit of freshness to a hearty meal or to simply cool off in hot weather. To keep the dressing on the sweet side, you need more tangerine juice than lemon juice.

Makes 2-3 Servings

Ingredient List:

  • 1 bunch fresh arugula, rinsed well and hand shredded
  • 2/3 cup pecan halves, lightly pan-toasted
  • Tangy Tangerine Dressing
  • Juice from 3 tangerines
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Pinch sea salt
  • Pinch cracked black pepper
  • Generous dash of red wine vinegar
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

Step By Step Instructions:

Shred arugula in a medium salad bowl. Add pecans.

For the dressing: Whisk together all ingredients until combined. Chill arugula and dressing separately, tossing together just before serving.
