How To Make steak salad nicoise

    utilizing leftover steak, slice thinly and set aside..I grilled a skirt steak here..very flavorful and if cooked properly very tender.. cook the hard boiled eggs then slice or quarter , steam the green beans till just aldente. remove and directly put them into an ice bath to keep the nice green color. then separatelyadd both the baby spinach and spring mixes together ino a large bowl, and set side. once the potatoes are cooked just enough to easily slice, let cool. the remaining is pretty expanantory. to serve , plate into 3 servings and as presentation you can see by my photo here. Then drizzle my clementine vinaigrette over top of each serving .recipe next step..i like to quarter the tomatoes too

    Mix the Clementine vinaigrette : using the juices of the clementines (oranges) , add the evoo, the fine chopped shallot, and the crushed walnuts. crushed red pepper flakes (optional) the sea salt and black pepper, and the champagne vinegar..shake well using a dressing or vinaigrette bottle then refrigerate for about 30 minutes or more..Or you can serve emediately..pour onto each plated serving

    Note: the olives are optional but are typically used in this salad, but you can use even black..also its your choice of how much steak to use..here i just used a few slices
