Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 thick slices pancetta
3 tablespoons olive oil
12 shiitake mushrooms, sliced
15 crimini mushrooms, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
15 kalamata olives, pitted and halved
2 tablespoons capers
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 cups fresh spinach, stems removed
2 cups arugula
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place the pancetta in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Chop into small pieces.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the shiitake and crimini mushrooms in the hot oil for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add the garlic, olives, capers, lemon juice, and balsamic vinegar; cook another 8 minutes.
  • Combine the spinach, arugula, bacon pieces, and the mushroom mixture in a large bowl; toss until the spinach and arugula leaves are coated. Sprinkle the feta cheese over the salad; season with black pepper to serve.

I love the combination of flavors and textures in this salad. The mushrooms are earthy and savory, the pancetta is salty and crispy, and the arugula is peppery and refreshing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pancetta. I also like to add a little bit of chopped walnuts or almonds for extra crunch.

Absolutely delicious! The pancetta adds a wonderful salty and smoky flavor to the mushrooms. I also love the addition of the arugula, which gives the salad a nice peppery bite. Will definitely be making this again!
