Heat grill to medium high heat and oil the grill grates. Brush the cut side of the figs with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the figs cut side down for approximately 2 minutes or until they have grill marks and soften slightly.
In a large serving bowl add the arugula and top with crumbled goat cheese, the grilled figs and pistachios.
Whisk together all of the ingredients for the vinaigrette and either pour over the salad just before serving or serve it on the side.
