Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 6 ounces green beans trimmed
- 8 ounces baby potatoes halved
- 1 cup grape tomatoes halved, or cucumbers
- 2 tablespoons capers
- ½ cup Mixed olives
- 1 can oil-packed tuna 6 ounces
- 4 cups romaine lettuce washed and dried
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Prep
- Fill a small bowl and a large bowl with ice water.
- Place eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and once boiling, cover with a lid. Remove from the heat and let sit 10-12 minutes. Remove eggs and place them in the small bowl of ice water. Set aside.
- While eggs are simmering, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add halved potatoes and boil 10 minutes. Add green beans to the boiling water and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender and beans are tender crisp. Drain and place in the large bowl of ice water.
- Drain the potatoes, toss with a little bit of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
Dressing
- Place all dressing ingredients except oil in a small bowl. Whisk while very slowly drizzling in the olive oil. Once all of the oil has been added, season with salt & pepper to taste.
Assembly
- Arrange lettuce, potatoes, and beans on a serving platter.
- Peel eggs under cold water. Cut in half and add to the plate. Add tomatoes and olives.
- Lightly drain the tuna and gently break apart with a fork. Place on top of the salad.
- Drizzle dressing overtop and garnish with capers and fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- Optional Additions:Radishes, sweet cornichons, red onions, fresh herbs
- Eggs can be cooked in an air fryer if desired (I cook them at 250°F for 15 minutes to get jammy yolks). No water required.
- Keep leftover salad niçoise ingredients from the lettuce in a separate container for up to 2 days. Leftover dressing will last about 7 days in the refrigerator.
