"This slightly different recipe uses arugula as a foil to offset the shrimp. For those who are not familiar with arugula, arugula is a spicy, peppery and nutritious salad green. Native to the Mediterranean, it has long been used in Italian cooking and the chef at my favorite Italian restaurant loves the stuff. It's also been rumored that the ancient Romans not only ate it for good luck but also as an aphrodisiac."
