Toasted Almonds: Heat a large, dry skillet over medium heat. When hot, add almonds; cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and aromatic.
Vinaigrette: Add the olive oil, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, lemon zest, honey, Dijon mustard, and salt to a small jar or bowl. If using a jar, place the lid on tightly; shake to combine. If using a bowl, whisk the vinaigrette until well combined.
Salad: Add the arugula to a large serving bowl. Drizzle the vinaigrette on top, toss to combine. Add the toasted almonds and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Top with freshly ground black pepper.
Serve immediately.

*To make in advance, the lemon vinaigrette can be made 2-3 days in advance, but not the salad. Keep the vinaigrette refrigerated until ready to use.
