Sauteed Shrimp with Arugula and Tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 ounces wild or baby arugula (4 cups)
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high.
- Add tomatoes and cook, stirring often, until blistered, about 2 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add shrimp and cook, stirring often, until almost opaque throughout, about 4 minutes.
- Add arugula, season with salt and pepper, and toss until wilted, about 1 minute.
- Add lemon juice and toss to combine.
- Serve immediately.
- Cultivated arugula is widely available year-round, but its at its very best in spring and early summer.
- Mature arugula is sold in bunches, while baby and wild arugula come loose or prepackaged.
- Look for perky green leaves without blemishes or spots.
- Arugula can be sandy, so submerge it in a bowl of cold water, then drain and spin dry.
- Wrap leaves in paper towels, and refrigerate in a plastic bag, up to 3 days.
- Refresh limp arugula by plunging it into ice water.
