2 tbsp red wine vinegar

Place potatoes in a large saucepan and pour enough water over them to cover by 2 inches. Set
pan over high heat and bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 6 minutes. Add green beans and cook until potatoes are fork-tender and green beans are crisp-tender, about 1 to 2 minutes more; drain and transfer vegetables to a large bowl.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together broth, vinegar, mustard and oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add half of dressing to potatoes and green beans; toss to coat.
Place 1 lettuce leaf on each of 4 plates. Top each with 1/4 of potato-green bean mixture, then top with 1 1/2 ounces of tuna, 1/2 tablespoon of capers and 4 olive halves. Drizzle each with 1/4 of remaining dressing.
Chef Tips - We renovated Tuna Salad Nioise by: Using fat-free chicken broth to replace oil in the dressing. Substituting white tuna in water for light tuna in oil.
