Roasted Lemon & Onion Arugula Salad
- 1 (7 ounce) bag baby arugula
- 1 large onion, cut in half and thin sliced and roasted
- 1 lemon, 1/2 cut in 3 wedges, the other half cut in half moon slices, and roasted
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- salt
- pepper
- 14 teaspoon sugar
- 14 cup olive oil
- 13 cup white wine vinegar
- 14 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 3 teaspoons fresh dill, chopped fine
- salt
- pepper
- Onions and Lemons -- In a 425 degree oven, middle shelf roast the lemons and the onions.
- Toss the onion slices with the olive oil, a pinch of both salt and pepper, and sugar.
- Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil.
- Also add the lemon wedges and half moon slices.
- Bake 7-10 minutes until the onions and lemon are tender and begin to caramelize.
- They don't take too long, so keep an eye of them.
- Remove and set to the side to cool as you make the dressing.
- Vinaigrette -- I like to use a small tupperware, plastic container or jar so you can just shake all the ingredients and then pour.
- Easy storage too if you have any vinaigrette leftover.
- If not, just use a small measuring cup or bowl.
- Add the olive oil, white wine vinegar, mustard, dill, salt and pepper.
- Salad -- In a medium size serving bowl, add the arugula, cooled onions and half moon slices of the onions and squeeze the roasted lemon quarters over the arugula.
- Use as much as you want, but I like mine with a lot of lemon flavor, so -- start with 1 or 2 wedges and see how it tastes after you add the vinaigrette.
- You can always squeeze in more of the lemon if you want.
- Add a little vinaigrette at a time and toss until you get the right amount of dressing for you.
- Season the salad at this point with any additional salt and pepper, but remember -- the vinegar already has salt and pepper, so go easy.
- If anything, I add a bit more pepper.
- Save any extra dressing.
- Serve -- ENJOY!
- Serve it with anything.
- Just a night light salad.
