Spicy Chili Garlic Deviled Eggs for a Flavor Kick
These spicy deviled eggs get their amazing taste from a mix of chili garlic paste and a few simple pantry items. They are creamy, a little tangy, and have just the right amount of heat that you will enjoy.
Key Ingredients & Tips
- Chili Garlic Paste: This paste gives a wonderful warm heat and a rich garlic taste. You can find it in the international aisle of most grocery stores.
- Fresh Chives: A sprinkle of fresh chives adds a mild onion note and makes the eggs look pretty. Don’t skip them if you can help it.
- Creamy Filling: For the best texture, make sure your egg yolks are well mashed before mixing. This helps avoid lumps in your creamy filling.
What You Need
- 6 large eggs, hard-boiled and cooled
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1-2 tablespoons chili garlic paste (adjust to your heat preference)
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh chives, chopped, for garnish
⏱️ Time: 25 minutes🍽️ Yields: 12 halves
How to Make It
Step 1: Prep the Eggs
Carefully peel your hard-boiled eggs. Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out the yellow yolks and place them in a medium-sized bowl. Keep the white halves on a serving plate.
Step 2: Make the Filling
Use a fork to mash the egg yolks until they are smooth and fine. Add the mayonnaise, chili garlic paste, rice vinegar, and Dijon mustard to the mashed yolks. Mix everything well until the filling is smooth and has a nice orange color.
Step 3: Season and Fill
Taste the filling and add salt and pepper as you like. You can add more chili garlic paste if you want it spicier. Spoon the filling back into the empty egg white halves. You can use a small spoon or a piping bag for a neater look.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
Arrange the filled deviled eggs on your serving plate. Sprinkle generously with chopped fresh chives before serving. They taste great right away or after chilling for a short time.
📝 Final Note
These deviled eggs are best enjoyed within 1-2 days. Keep them covered in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
