How to Hard-Boil Eggs
I highly recommend hard-boiling the eggs ahead of time for this recipe. Here is how to hard-boil eggs perfectly:
- Add the eggs to a pot: Place the eggs in a large pot and cover them with 2 inches of water.
- Boil: Bring the water to a boil over high heat. You should see bubbles bursting at the surface of the water.
- Let the eggs cook: Turn off the heat. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and allow the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
- Cool: Drain and then run cold water over the eggs, to stop them from cooking any further.
After your eggs have been boiled, cooled, and peeled, the rest of this recipe is a breeze.
How to make Spicy Deviled Eggs
To make this spicy deviled eggs recipe, simply:
- Slice the eggs: Cut your peeled boiled eggs in half lengthwise.
- Remove the yolks: Scoop out the yolks into a small bowl and place the egg white halves onto a plate.
- Mix the yolks with the seasonings: Mash the egg yolks and then stir in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Sriracha, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
- Return the yolks to the whites: Use a small spoon to scoop out some of the yolk mixture and place it evenly into the cavity of each egg white half.
- Garnish and serve: To make your deviled eggs look extra pretty when you are serving them, sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes and/or chopped chives over top of each one.
