Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. honey
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp. kosher salt, plus more
6 large eggs
1 lb. green beans, trimmed; asparagus, trimmed; and/or new or baby potatoes, halved if larger
4 cups halved or sliced radishes, seedless cucumbers, fennel, and/or tomatoes
3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, oil-packed tuna, cooked salmon or steak, cooked lentils, or canned white beans or chickpeas
Olives, capers, peperoncini, pickles, or other pickled-briny ingredients (for serving)
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Whisk oil, lemon juice, mustard, honey, pepper, and 1 tsp. kosher salt in a medium bowl; set dressing aside.
  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add eggs and cook 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water (keep pot over high heat); chill until cold, about 5 minutes. Peel; set aside.
  • Meanwhile, add green beans, asparagus, or potatoes to the same pot of boiling water and cook until just tender (if you are using a combination, cook vegetables separately), 2-4 minutes for green beans or asparagus, 10-15 minutes for potatoes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to bowl of ice water; let sit until cold, about 3 minutes. Transfer to paper towels; pat dry.
  • To serve, slice eggs in half and arrange on a platter with cooked and raw vegetables and protein. Top with pickled-briny ingredient(s), sprinkle with sea salt, and drizzle some reserved dressing over. Serve with remaining dressing alongside.
  • Do Ahead: Dressing can be made 5 days ahead; cover and chill. Eggs can be boiled and vegetables blanched 2 days ahead; cover and chill separately.

I didn't have any white wine on hand, so I used chicken broth instead. It turned out fine, but I think the white wine would have added a bit more flavor.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was still good.

I followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more salt and pepper to taste.
