Salmon Nicoise Salad Nugget Markets signature recipes

This modern twist on a French classic brings a host of vibrant veggies together with hard-boiled eggs and savory salmon for a filling and flavorful meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 4 eggs
  • 6 ounces haricots verts (French green beans)
  • 4 salmon fillets, skinless
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Cracked black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 ounces tender salad greens
  • 1½ cups cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup Kalamata olives, pitted
  • 6 white anchovy fillets

Preparation

Preheat grill to medium-high heat or oven to 400°F.

Boil potatoes for 15–20 minutes, until they are fork tender, then cut them in half and allow to come to room temperature.

While the potatoes are boiling, boil eggs for 6 minutes, then immediately chill. Once cool, peel and halve the eggs, then set aside.

Blanche haricots verts for 5–7 minutes, until bright green and tender.

Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper to taste, then grill for 2–4 minutes per side, or roast for 10–12 minutes, until a probe thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 145°F.

In a large bowl, whisk together the mustard, vinegar, garlic, and olive oil, then season with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the greens, tomatoes, haricots verts, and olives to the bowl with dressing, then gently toss together.

Arrange dressed greens and vegetables on a platter, then add salmon, eggs, potatoes, and anchovies to finish. Sprinkle with salt and serve immediately.
