A bold twist on the classic recipe, these eggs are loaded with a creamy filling made from mayo, Dijon mustard, and a kick of chipotle pepper in adobo sauce for an irresistible smoky heat. A splash of lime juice brightens the flavors, while a sprinkle of paprika and optional fresh cilantro garnish add a vibrant finish. Perfect for parties, brunches, or a crowd-pleasing snack, these deviled eggs are as easy to make as they are to devour. Ready in less than 30 minutes, this recipe is a must-try for anyone who loves a little spice.
Place the eggs in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with cold water, ensuring the water is about 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook the eggs for 10-12 minutes.
Carefully drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool for 5-10 minutes. Once cooled, peel the eggs.
Slice each egg in half lengthwise and gently remove the yolks, placing them in a medium bowl. Set the whites aside on a serving plate.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until smooth. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chipotle pepper (finely chopped), adobo sauce, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the yolks. Mix until the filling is creamy and well combined.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the egg white halves, evenly dividing the filling among them.
Sprinkle a light dusting of paprika on top of the filled eggs. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro for added flavor and color.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
