Salmon Niçoise

This elegant salmon Niçoise is a nutritious twist on the classic French bistro favourite. By replacing traditional tuna with roasted salmon fillets, the dish gains a rich, buttery texture and a boost of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. The addition of crispy fried capers and a punchy anchovy and lemon vinaigrette elevates the fresh ingredients, creating a vibrant harmony of salty, zesty, and earthy flavours.

Ideal as a sophisticated weekend lunch or a light evening meal, this colourful salad is as visually striking as it is wholesome. It perfectly balances lean protein with slow-release carbohydrates from the purple potatoes and crunch from the blanched green beans. Serve it on a large sharing platter for a communal dining experience that feels both indulgent and nourishing.

Ingredients for Salmon Niçoise

  • 230g small purple potatoes

  • Sal kosher

  • 110g haricots verts, trimmed

  • 6 huevos grandes, a temperatura ambiente

  • 2 tablespoons plus 60ml olive oil

  • 60ml drained capers, patted dry

  • 450g skin-on salmon fillet

  • Pimienta negra recién molida

  • 4 anchovy fillets packed in oil

  • 1 cucharada de mostaza Dijon integral

  • 1/2 cucharadita de azúcar

  • 1 limón

  • 1/2 medium shallot, finely chopped

  • 950ml frisée or mâche

  • 60ml niçoise olives, pitted

Place potatoes in a medium saucepan and add cold water to cover by 1". Bring to a boil, season with salt, and cook until fork-tender, 15–20 minutes. Transfer potatoes to a plate with a slotted spoon.

Return water to a boil and cook haricots verts in same saucepan until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a bowl of ice water. Chill until cold, about 3 minutes. Transfer to paper towels and pat dry.

Return water in pot to a boil and cook eggs 8 minutes. Transfer eggs to bowl of ice water and chill until cold, about 5 minutes. Peel; set aside.

Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a small saucepan over medium-high. Add capers and cook, swirling pan occasionally, until capers burst and are crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer capers with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Let oil cool; set aside.

Preheat oven to 425°. Rub salmon all over with reserved caper oil and place on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast until medium-rare (fish will be slightly translucent in the centre), 10–12 minutes. Let cool.

Meanwhile, mash anchovies, mustard, and sugar in a large bowl to form a coarse paste. Remove peel and white pith from lemon. Working over bowl, cut between membranes of lemon to release segments. Squeeze remaining juice from membranes into bowl; discard membranes. Whisk in shallot, then slowly whisk in remaining 60ml oil. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.

Using a fork, break salmon into large flakes; discard skin. Halve reserved potatoes and eggs crosswise.

Arrange frisée on a platter; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with half of dressing. Top in separate piles with potatoes, haricots verts, hard-boiled eggs, olives, and salmon. Drizzle salad with remaining dressing and top with fried capers.
