Sauteed Arugula image

This spicy green is one of my favorites to toss on a salad, and I was craving something warm, so I decided to try sauteeing it in a healthy way--no oil! In just a couple minutes, I had a great warm topping to cover my lettuce and serve with other toppings. **Note: I am updating the recipe, as I think it deserves higher than the two stars it has gotten :( I have problems with onions (or my stomach thinks it does!), so I don't use them, but for those of you out there who want onions in the arugula, go for it! Here's a revised version of how to make the arugula, a bit more calorie-rich, but I'm sure many will find the taste improved. (Just for the record, I still like the greens without the onion and oil added, but I'm used to a blander diet.) Additional note: the original recipe, without the oil, onions and garlic, was 11 calories; I wouldn't worry about the onions and garlic, but you could definitely leave out the oil if you didn't want to add those extra calories.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 ounces fresh arugula, washed and trimmed
1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
pepper
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/4 cup onion, chopped or sliced
1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic

Steps:

  • In frying pan, heat chicken broth and spices to boiling.
  • After bringing to a boil, add the arugula, tossing gently to cover all with the broth.
  • Let sit for a minute or two, stirring occasionally, until all leaves are wilted. (Additional broth may be needed to keep moist.).
  • I found this to be a great salad topping, or fantastic on top of lumpy mashed potatoes.
  • **For those who want a more flavor-rich side, try the following:.
  • Add 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil to the pan first; heat oil and cook 1/4 cup chopped (or sliced) onion and 1 teaspoons minced garlic until onions are tender. Then proceed with the broth, arugula and spices.
  • I hope this is satisfying! :).

I'm not a big fan of arugula, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The lemon and garlic really mellowed out the bitterness of the arugula.
