These deviled eggs feature a spicy sriracha kick that adds bold flavor to a classic appetizer. Perfect for parties and quick snacks, they combine creamy richness with a fiery twist.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) sriracha sauce
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives or green onions (optional)
  • Smoked paprika for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place 6 large eggs in a single layer in a saucepan. Cover with cold water about 1 inch above the eggs.
  2. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, then cover the pan and remove from heat. Let sit for 12 minutes.
  3. Drain hot water and fill the pan with ice-cold water. Let eggs chill for at least 5 minutes.
  4. Gently tap each egg on a hard surface and peel under running water to avoid tearing the whites.
  5. Slice eggs in half lengthwise, carefully remove yolks, and place yolks in a mixing bowl. Set whites aside on a plate.
  6. Mash yolks with a fork or potato masher until crumbly and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Add mayonnaise, sriracha, Dijon mustard, fresh lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the yolks. Stir until creamy and well combined. Adjust seasoning or sriracha to taste.
  8. Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves, forming a small mound on each egg.
  9. Sprinkle with smoked paprika and chopped chives or green onions. Drizzle extra sriracha over the top if desired.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before serving to let flavors meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

If yolk mixture is too thick, add a teaspoon of milk or more mayonnaise to loosen. For dairy-free, swap mayonnaise with avocado mayo or vegan alternative. Adjust sriracha to control heat. Chill eggs before serving for best texture and flavor melding.
