ARUGULA WITH PARMESAN

- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour enough dressing on the arugula to moisten. Toss well and place the salad on individual plates.
- With a very sharp knife or a vegetable peeler, shave the Parmesan into large shards and arrange them on the arugula.

- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour enough dressing on the salad to moisten. With a very sharp knife or a vegetable peeler, shave the Parmesan into large shards on top of the salad. Toss gently and serve immediately.
PARMESAN-CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH ARUGULA SALAD
This offering, originally from Food & Wine, is an easy weeknight meal. I love it for it's simplicity. Even though it is quick and easy, there is still great flavor due to the dijon, fresh thyme and parmesan. I love the lightly dressed salad which you can pile underneath each serving of chicken. If you like more dressing for your salad, by all means mix up a little extra!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees.
- In a small bowl, whisk 2 teaspoons of the mustard with 2 teaspoons of the olive oil and the thyme.
- Season the chicken breasts, on both sides, with salt and pepper - then brush them all over with the mustard mixture.
- Pat about 2 T. of the parmesan on EACH chicken breast (both sides) - it should take about 1/2 Cup total for all 4 breasts.
- Transfer the chicken breasts to a rimmed baking sheet (I line mine with alum. foil sprayed with just a touch of Pam - for easy release and clean-up).
- Bake the chicken on the top shelf of the oven for about 15 minutes, or until just cooked through and nicely browned.
- Meanwhile, in a salad bowl, combine the remaining 1 teaspoon each of mustard and oil; then stir in the water.
- Add the arugula (or spring mix lettuce) and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper and toss well.
- Spoon the salad onto plates, top with the chicken and serve!

Tips:
- To make the perfect pastry, use cold butter and ice water. This will help to prevent the gluten from developing too much, which will make the pastry tough.
- When rolling out the pastry, be sure to do so on a lightly floured surface. This will help to prevent the pastry from sticking.
- If the pastry is too sticky, you can chill it for a few minutes before rolling it out again.
- When baking the pastry, be sure to preheat the oven to the correct temperature. This will help to ensure that the pastry cooks evenly.
- To make the arugula salad, use fresh, young arugula leaves. This will give the salad the best flavor.
- Be sure to dress the salad just before serving. This will help to prevent the arugula from wilting.
Conclusion:
The parmesan tart with arugula salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy parmesan filling pairs perfectly with the fresh, peppery arugula salad, and the flaky pastry crust adds a touch of elegance. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it is also a great way to use up leftover parmesan cheese.
