Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 pepper chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 teaspoon adobo sauce
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley or cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer gently for 9–10 minutes.
Transfer the cooked eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
Peel the eggs carefully and cut each one in half lengthwise.
Scoop the yolks into a medium mixing bowl and place the egg whites on a serving tray or plate.
Mash the yolks with a fork until fine and crumbly. Add the mayonnaise, finely chopped chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, fresh lime juice, smoked paprika, and salt.
Stir the mixture until smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Using a small spoon or piping bag, fill the egg whites with the yolk mixture, slightly mounding it in the center of each egg.
Sprinkle with additional smoked paprika for garnish and top with fresh parsley or cilantro, if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
