Ingredients

Directions

  • Make the vinaigrette: Combine garlic, anchovy, pesto, mustard, lemon juice, vinegar, and salt and pepper in a small bowl. Using a whisk, slowly pour in olive oil while stirring constantly. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Heat oven to 375°F.
  • Place potatoes in a medium pot and cover them with 2 or 3 inches of cold water. Salt the water and bring to a boil. When the water comes to a boil, continue cooking the potatoes for 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
  • Add green beans to the pot of boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes. Drain the beans and let them cool.
  • Place potatoes on a lined baking sheet, drizzle olive oil and bake for 15 minutes or until they start to brown. Remove from oven and allow them to cool.
  • Transfer the potatoes and green beans to a small bowl and dress with some of the vinaigrette. Toss in chopped basil.
  • On a large platter or individual plates, arrange lettuces, potatoes and green beans, radishes, tomatoes, tuna, and hardboiled egg.
  • Scatter olives over the top and drizzle with remaining vinaigrette. Serve garnished with salt, pepper, and basil leaves.
