Place lamb in a shallow dish or large resealable plastic bag and coat with marinade. Cover and let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate and let marinate for up to 24 hours.
Heat grill or grill pan over medium and grill the lamb until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
In a large bowl, toss to combine arugula and pistachios. Season with salt and pepper. Serve salad and lamb drizzled with vinaigrette.
