Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and blanched green beans. Toss gently to mix.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Eggs

    Peel and quarter the hard-boiled eggs and set aside for garnish.

Ahi Tuna Cooking

  1. 3

    Season the Ahi Tuna

    Rub the Ahi tuna steak with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 4

    Cook the Ahi Tuna

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tuna steak for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until the outside is browned but the inside remains rare. Remove from heat and drizzle with lemon juice.

  3. 5

    Slice the Ahi Tuna

    Once cooked, let the tuna rest for a minute, then slice it into thin strips.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 6

    Mix the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, olive oil, honey, and chopped fresh herbs until well combined.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Salad

    On a large platter, layer the salad base, top with sliced Ahi tuna, and arrange the quartered hard-boiled eggs around the dish. Drizzle the dressing over the top.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve immediately while the tuna is still warm, and enjoy your Wild Ahi Nicoise Salad!
