Yield Makes 4 to 6 side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 lb zucchini (about 3 large)
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 lb arugula, stems discarded and leaves cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips (6 cups)
1 oz Parmigiano-Reggiano, coarsely grated (on large holes of a box grater; 1/2 cup)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Special Equipment
an adjustable-blade slicer

Steps:

  • Cut zucchini crosswise into paper-thin slices with slicer.
  • Toss zucchini slices with 1 teaspoon salt in a large colander set over a bowl and let drain 20 minutes.
  • Rinse zucchini slices well, then drain, pressing gently on slices to extract any excess liquid. Pat zucchini slices dry with a kitchen towel.
  • Put arugula greens in a large bowl. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Drizzle 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil over greens and toss.
  • Arrange zucchini slices over arugula greens, then drizzle with remaining oil and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender arugula for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use a mandoline or sharp knife to thinly slice the zucchini so that it cooks evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the zucchini. Cook it in batches if necessary to prevent steaming.
  • Season the zucchini with salt and pepper to taste before adding it to the salad.
  • Use a good quality Parmesan cheese for the best flavor. Grating your own cheese will give you the best results.
  • Add the Parmesan cheese to the salad just before serving to prevent it from getting soggy.
  • Drizzle the salad with a simple vinaigrette dressing made with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper.
  • Serve the salad immediately.

Conclusion:

This arugula, zucchini, and Parmesan salad is a light, refreshing, and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For a more substantial salad, add some grilled chicken or shrimp. For a vegan salad, omit the Parmesan cheese. No matter how you choose to make it, this salad is sure to be a hit.
