Preparation

Step 1

1.) Cook pasta al dente in a large stockpot according to package instructions. (be sure to also liberally salt the pasta water. This is the only chance you have to flavor the actual pasta.)

2.) While pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a saute pan over med-high heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until it begins to turn just slightly golden. Remove from heat, and reserve garlic and olive oil drippings on a plate.

3.) Once the pasta has finished cooking, drain it. Then add in the garlic and olive oil mixture and the arugula. toss until combined. Serve individual portions garnished with lots of Parmesan cheese.
