SHEET-PAN ROASTED SALMON NIçOISE SALAD
Here, the classic French salad becomes an elegant dinner, with mustard-glazed salmon in place of tuna, roasted vegetables and jammy eggs served over a jumble of salad greens tossed with a red-wine vinaigrette. Roasting the vegetables, rather than serving some steamed and some raw as you would for a traditional Niçoise, gives this dish great texture and a delicious contrast of temperatures. The vegetables and salmon are roasted on a single sheet pan, making this an elevated take on the one-dish dinner - fit for company and easy enough for a weeknight.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees and place a rack near the top of the oven. Place the potatoes on a sheet pan, add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss. Arrange the potatoes so the cut sides are facing down and roast for 20 minutes.
- While the potatoes roast, fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Add the eggs and cook over medium heat for exactly 6 minutes. Remove the eggs, and when they are cool enough to handle, peel and quarter them.
- Make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, the garlic, anchovy (if using), 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Slowly whisk in 4 tablespoons of olive oil and set aside.
- Add the haricots verts, tomatoes and olives to the sheet pan with the potatoes, along with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using tongs, toss well, then move the vegetables to the sides to create space in the center of the sheet pan. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and place them, skin-side down, in the center of the sheet pan.
- Brush fillets with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Roast on the top rack in the oven for 10 minutes. Turn the broiler to high and broil for 2 to 3 minutes to lightly brown the salmon. (If you don't have a broiler, roast salmon for an additional 2 to 3 minutes instead.) The salmon should flake easily and be just cooked in the center.
- Add the greens to the large bowl with the dressing, and toss gently. Place greens on a large platter, leaving a narrow border at the platter's edges. Place the salmon fillets in the middle of the platter, then arrange the roasted vegetables and eggs around them. Sprinkle with salt and serve.
SHEET-PAN SALMON NIçOISE
No need to wait for warm weather to enjoy the flavors of this classic French salad-this sheet-pan recipe transforms it into a low-fuss, impressive dinner. With the roasted green beans, tomatoes and potatoes, this meal is still largely vegetable-based, just like the original. Salmon fillets, replacing the traditional tuna, add a richness that makes this meal particularly satisfying during colder weather. Adding a white wine-thyme vinaigrette is an easy way to add bright, zingy flavor to the whole meal. So next time you need a break from all the heavy foods of winter, give this one-and-done dinner a try!

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425°F. Spray large rimmed sheet pan with cooking spray.
- In small bowl, make dressing by beating shallot, garlic, vinegar, lemon juice, thyme, 1/8 teaspoon of the salt and pepper with whisk. Slowly beat in olive oil.
- In large bowl, toss potatoes with 2 teaspoons of the dressing; season with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt. Place potatoes skin side up in single layer on pan. Roast potatoes 20 minutes. Remove from oven. Turn potatoes skin side down, and make room for salmon, tomatoes and artichoke hearts.
- Place salmon skin side down on pan; drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the dressing, and season with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. In same large bowl, mix tomatoes and artichoke hearts with 1 tablespoon of the dressing, and toss to coat. Add vegetables to pan around salmon and potatoes. Roast 12 to 15 minutes or until salmon is cooked through, flakes easily with fork, and potatoes are fork-tender. Toss cooked green beans with remaining dressing (about 2 teaspoons), and add to pan. Place in oven 2 minutes. Top with olives.
