Put oil in a cast iron or sauté pan and heat over medium high heat, when hot, add the shaved beef.
Sauté, turning so that the beef cooks evenly. Add salt (and black pepper, if desired.)
When the beef is cooked, remove it from the heat, taste for seasoning and add as needed, but leave it in the pan.
Prepare the Salad
Place the clean, dry arugula in a large bowl and drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil. Add salt to taste.If using, drizzle with a little balsamic vinegar.
Toss until well mixed. Taste and add ingredients as desired.
Assemble the Straccetti Dish
Place half of the salad on each of two serving plates.
Next, add the straccetti to the top of the salad leaves.
Then arrange shavings of real Parmigiano Reggiano to the top of the beef salad. Either serve as is, or drizzle with more balsamic vinegar, to finish. Ta dah–dinner is served!
Notes
Skip the balsamic vinegar for a more authentic recipe.
FYI Parmigiano Reggiano and balsamic vinegar go really well together!
