2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the garlic, lemon juice, zest and vinegar. Let these ingredients sit for 10 minutes, then drizzle in the olive oil in a thin stream, whisking constantly, until the dressing emulsifies.
3. When the water boils, add the squid to the pot. Cook just until opaque, 2-3 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
4. In a large bowl, toss together the squid, arugula, beans and onion slices. Drizzle the salad with a little dressing at a time until it's lightly coated and tastes good. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.
