Categories     quick, salads and dressings

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 anchovies, finely chopped
1 very large garlic clove, minced
Large pinch kosher salt
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Black pepper
1 small bunch arugula, cleaned and torn into pieces (about 3 cups)
1 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced

Steps:

  • In a small skillet over medium heat, warm the oil. Add anchovies and cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until anchovies melt into the oil, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in salt, vinegar and pepper. Let cool to room temperature.
  • In a serving bowl, toss arugula with just enough dressing to coat. Season well with black pepper. In a smaller bowl, very gently toss avocado with more of the dressing (you may not need it all). Add avocado to arugula and very gently combine. Serve immediately.

I'm not a huge fan of arugula, but I really enjoyed this salad. The avocado and dressing balance out the bitterness of the arugula perfectly.

This salad was a bit too bitter for my taste. I think it would be better with a sweeter dressing.

I've made this salad several times and it's always a hit. The dressing is especially good. I like to add a bit of chopped bacon or crumbled goat cheese for extra flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great. The dressing is a bit rich for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using a lighter oil, such as olive oil, in the dressing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover arugula and avocado. The dressing is simple to make and adds a lot of flavor. I would recommend adding a bit of salt and pepper to taste.

I made this salad for lunch today and it was so good! The dressing is tangy and creamy, and the avocado adds a nice richness. I will definitely be making this again.
