Salad Niçoise
- 3 small round red potatoes, sliced
- 1/4 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- 1 (8-ounce) tuna steak (3/4 inch thick)
- 1/3 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 cups torn Bibb lettuce or leaf lettuce
- 1 medium tomato, cut into 8 wedges
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Arrange potato and green beans on one side of a steamer basket over boiling water in a Dutch oven. Place tuna on opposite side of basket. Cover and steam 8 to 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Set tuna aside to cool. Plunge steamed potato and green beans into ice water to cool.
- While tuna and vegetables steam, combine vinegar, lemon juice, and mustard in a jar; cover tightly, and shake vigorously.
- Place lettuce on a serving platter. Drain potato and beans; arrange over lettuce. Flake tuna, and place on salad; add tomato wedges. Drizzle with vinegar mixture. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
