Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons kalamata olives, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika (for garnish)
- 6 fresh dill sprigs (for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a single layer in a 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 the heat to low and let the eggs simmer gently for 10 minutes.
Once cooked, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for at least 5 minutes.
Peel the eggs carefully and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving platter.
Using a fork, mash the yolks into a fine crumble. Add mayonnaise, crumbled feta cheese, chopped olives, chopped dill, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture evenly into the hollowed egg whites using a piping bag or a zip-top bag with one corner snipped off.
Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the filled eggs for garnish and top each egg with a small sprig of fresh dill.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for the best flavor.
