Yield 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 ounces small purple potatoes
Kosher salt
4 ounces haricots verts, trimmed
6 large eggs, room temperature
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup drained capers, patted dry
1 pound skin-on salmon fillet
Freshly ground black pepper
4 anchovy fillets packed in oil
1 tablespoon whole grain Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 lemon
1/2 medium shallot, finely chopped
4 cups frisée or mâche
1/4 cup niçoise olives, pitted

Steps:

  • 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 center), 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 1/4 cup 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.

I'm a big fan of salmon and this recipe did not disappoint! The salmon was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful and tangy. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover salmon. I made a few changes to the recipe, such as using a different type of white wine and adding some fresh dill. The results were delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salmon turned out dry and overcooked. The sauce was also too salty. I'm going to try this recipe again, but I'll make some changes.

The salmon was a bit bland for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I would probably add more seasonings to the salmon next time I make this.

Followed the recipe exactly and the salmon turned out dry and overcooked. The sauce was bland and lacked flavor. Not a fan.
