Tuna Nicoise Salad Recipe 🐟🥗

Ingredients

  • 3 small red potatoes
  • 1/2 pound green beans, trimmed
  • 2 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and halved
  • 2 small tomatoes, quartered
  • 1/4 cup red onion, sliced
  • 1 can of tuna, drained
  • 1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives
  • 2 tablespoons of capers
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of red-wine vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain and let cool.
  2. In a separate pot of boiling salted water, blanch the green beans for two minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain and then rinse with cold water.
  3. On a large platter or four individual plates, arrange the potatoes, green beans, eggs, tomatoes, onion, tuna, olives, and capers in a decorative fashion.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red-wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad, then serve and enjoy!
