    Add the sliced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.

    Increase the heat to medium-high and toss in the arugula. Sauté for about 1 minute, just until the leaves wilt and shrink down by half.

  6. 06
    Serve warm, transferring to a platter or shallow bowl.
