You just need to install LibreELEC.
You can write LibreELEC 7.90.005 to your USB memory stick using the LibreELEC USB-SD Creator tool.
Then boot your NUC from the USB memory stick. Type "installer" to install LibreELEC permanently to you internal disk (wiping whatever is already installed), or type "live" to test LibreELEC without installing anything - this will allow you to confirm it works before making any permanent changes.
Once you've installed LibreELEC 7.90.005 to your internal disk you can upgrade to these test builds by copying the latest tar file into the LibreELEC Update folder (see "Installing" section in the first post).
Edit: 7.90.006 is due in a few days and will support a third option, "run", which will allow you to boot LibreELEC with persistent storage on the USB memory stick (your internal storage will remain untouched). With "run" you can upgrade the version of LibreELEC on the USB memory stick in the normal way - essentially this will be a "portable" version of LibreELEC.
