Ingredients

• 4 cups Mixed salad greens (e.g., lettuce, arugula, frisée)
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 medium Cucumber, thinly sliced
• 4 small Radishes, thinly sliced
• 2 Hard-boiled eggs, quartered
• 0.5 cup Nicoise olives
• 1 small Shallot, finely minced
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
• 4 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh chives, finely chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the hard-boiled eggs. Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Drain the hot water and immediately place the eggs in a bowl of ice water. Peel and quarter them once they are cool.

Step 2

Wash and dry the mixed greens thoroughly, then place them in a large salad bowl.

Step 3

Add the halved cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and radish slices to the bowl with the greens.

Step 4

Sprinkle the Nicoise olives on top of the salad.

Step 5

Prepare the dressing: in a small mixing bowl, whisk together the minced shallot, Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to whisk until the dressing emulsifies.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.

Step 7

Arrange the quartered hard-boiled eggs on top of the salad and garnish with chopped parsley and chives.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Savoury Salad à La Française as a main course or a beautiful side dish.
