Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 1/3 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 stalk (finely diced) Celery
- 2 tablespoons (finely diced) Red onion
Instructions
Place the 6 large eggs in a single layer in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about 1 inch.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and water.
Once the eggs are done, transfer them to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them cool for about 5 minutes.
Peel the eggs under cool running water, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Chop the eggs into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a medium mixing bowl.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, chopped chives, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and combined.
Add the finely diced celery and red onion to the chopped eggs in the mixing bowl.
Pour the mayonnaise mixture over the eggs and gently fold everything together until well combined.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper to your preference.
Serve immediately on toasted bread, in wraps, or over a bed of lettuce. Alternatively, refrigerate for up to 2 days in an airtight container.
