Place the large eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 9-10 minutes.
While the eggs are cooking, wash the radishes thoroughly and thinly slice them into rounds. Set aside.
After the eggs are done cooking, immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes.
Peel the shells off the cooled eggs, then slice or chop them into chunky pieces as per your preference.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the chopped eggs and sliced radishes to the bowl. Gently toss everything together until evenly coated in the dressing.
Sprinkle the chopped chives over the salad and give it a final gentle stir.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours to let the flavors meld. Enjoy your Egg and Radish Salad!
