Servings: persons

1 garlic clove
kosher salt
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
1 lb summer squash (Yellow, Zucchini or a mix)
fresh ground black pepper
4 cups baby arugula, loosely packed
1/2 cup Italian parsley
1/2 cup chives, cut into 1/2 inch lengths
2 tablespoons capers
1/4 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, finely grated, plus a chunk to shave for garnish

1
Mash garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt, put in a small bowl and whisk in lemon juice. Let sit for 10 minutes and then whisk in olive oil.
2
Using a mandoline or sharp chef's knife, cut squash into very thin ovals (1/16 inch thick). Put into a medium bowl and toss with 2/3 of the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper.
3
Combine Arugula, parsley, chives and capers in a separate bowl, season with salt and pepper, and toss with just enough vinaigrette to lightly coat.
4
Layer about 1/3 of squash in a shallow bowl or platter, scatter 1/3 of arugula mixture on top and sprinkle with 1/3 of the grated Parmesan. Repeat layering two more times.
5
For garnish, shave long strips of Parmesan with a vegetable peeler onto the salad. Serve immediately.
