Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool, then cut into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Green Beans

    Trim the green beans and blanch them in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and cool in ice water.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Fennel and Bell Pepper

    Thinly slice the fennel bulb and bell pepper.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Eggs

    Boil the eggs until hard-boiled, about 10-12 minutes. Cool in ice water, peel, and cut into quarters.

  5. 5

    Make the Dressing

    In a bowl, combine chopped kalamata olives with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix well to form a creamy dressing.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine smoked trout, peppery greens, potatoes, green beans, sliced fennel, sliced bell pepper, and quartered eggs. Drizzle with the dressing and toss gently to combine.
