Ingredients

  1. 1 pound rainbow fingerling potatoes, quartered
  2. 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
  3. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  4. 8 ounces haricot verts, trimmed
  5. 4 large eggs
  6. 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
  7. 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  8. 2 teaspoons thyme leaves, chopped
  9. 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
  10. 1 head Boston, Bibb or butter lettuce, leaves separated
  11. One 4- to 6-ounce smoked salmon fillet, broken into large chunks
  12. 16 cherry tomatoes, halved
  13. 1 cup nicoise or kalamata olives

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, toss the haricot verts with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and place on one side of a second baking sheet. Place the eggs on the other side of the baking sheet. After the potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes, add the second baking sheet to the oven. Continue to roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy in spots and easily pierced with a fork and the green beans are tender and crisp in spots, about 15 minutes more.
  4. Immediately submerge the eggs into a bowl of ice water and let sit for 10 minutes. Peel and quarter the eggs. 
  5. Mix the vinegar, mustard, thyme leaves and red onion in a medium bowl. Whisking constantly, drizzle in the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil until emulsified.
  6. Divide the lettuce among serving plates. Arrange the potatoes, haricot verts, salmon, eggs, cherry tomatoes and olives on top of the lettuce and drizzle each plate with some of the dressing. Sprinkle with salt and a few grinds of black pepper.

We love smoked salmon but we didn’t like it in salad.
Elizabeth Williams MD
Made this and used asparagus instead of verts as boyfriend foes care for green beans. Cooked eggs on shell in oven; works! Was delicious and dressing was amazing. Will make again!

I did not enjoy this nearly as much as our own Nicoise. The eggs did not fully cook and I wanted them jammy but the whites were a disaster and the eggs were impossible to peel. I like the combination much better with tuna as opposed to smoked salmon. The dressing was good and I didn’t mind the roasted vegetables but I will not make this again.

This is the best version of this salad I have ever eaten! The dressing is so good you can drink it! It’s also nice to have extra on hand to make the salad back to back. Because I may do that it’s so good. It’s so hearty that it fill you up for dinner. I make a “deconstructed” version for my kids with all the veggies on the side, for some reason they won’t eat lettuce. Haha. I also use Trader Joe’s hot smoked salmon and it’s the perfect addition to the amazing salad. I might make this recipe a few times a month b/c it’s just that good!

So good! I forgot about adding the olives, but it was delicious nonetheless. Loved the flavor of roasted potatoes in the salad. Will definitely make again

Loved it! It pleased my carnivore, my pescatarian and my low carb eater!

This is a very strange recipe as far as the eggs go!! We are supposed to put 4 eggs on baking sheet with the beans and cook them?? I’m not going there. Hard boiled eggs are called for!! Jeez.

I really loved the smoked salmon and roasted potatoes in this salad. It was a great version of the classic Niçoise salad. Will definitely make it again!
