Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the Hard-Boiled Eggs: Place eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water, bring to a boil over medium-high heat, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes. Transfer eggs to cold water to cool, then peel under running water.
- Cook the Potatoes: Wash and halve or quarter the new potatoes. Place in a pot, cover with salted water, and bring to a gentle boil. Cook until tender but firm, about 12 minutes.
- Add the Green Beans: Stir in the trimmed green beans once potatoes are cooked. Boil for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until beans are bright green and tender-crisp.
- Ice Bath: Drain potatoes and green beans in a colander, then plunge them into ice water for 5 minutes to stop cooking. Drain again and set aside.
- Make the Vinaigrette: In a jar, combine olive oil, lemon juice, wine vinegar, garlic, mustard, capers, salt, and pepper. Shake vigorously until emulsified.
- Assemble the Salad: In a bowl, combine cooled potatoes and green beans with parsley and chives. Drizzle with half vinaigrette and toss. Slice hard-boiled eggs and arrange on top, drizzle with remaining vinaigrette.
- Serve and Enjoy: Let salad rest for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate for a few hours. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes
Allow salad to rest for better flavor. Use smaller, waxy potatoes for best texture. Do not skip the ice bath to maintain color and crunch.
