Optional:
If desired, let salmon marinate with the rub for an hour or so before cooking for more intense flavor.
Cook over medium heat until salmon is just cooked through to the center.
Remove salmon from the heat and allow to rest 5 minutes. Meanwhile, toss arugula with lemon vinaigrette and arrange on a serving platter. Place salmon on bed of arugula and serve.
