Elevate your egg game with the elegant and savory delight of Eggs Jeanette. This sophisticated twist on deviled eggs combines perfectly boiled egg whites filled with a creamy, Dijon-spiked yolk mixture, which is then seared to golden perfection in butter. A tangy white wine vinaigrette drizzle enhances every bite, while a sprinkle of fresh parsley adds a burst of color and flavor. With just 15 minutes of prep time, this dish makes an impressive appetizer or a stand-out addition to brunch or lunch. Simple yet refined, Eggs Jeanette is proof that humble ingredients like eggs, mayonnaise, and olive oil can transform into a gourmet experience.
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce to a gentle simmer, and cook for 10 minutes.
After cooking, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool completely, about 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
Gently scoop the yolks into a small bowl and place the whites on a plate. Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth.
Mix the mashed yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of white wine vinegar, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Stir until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
Carefully spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed-out egg whites, slightly overfilling them.
Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. When the butter is foamy, place the eggs yolk-side down in the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the yolk mixture is golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining white wine vinegar, olive oil, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning as needed.
To serve, drizzle the vinaigrette over the eggs and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve warm or at room temperature.
