Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 1 piece ripe avocado
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika (for garnish)
- 3 pieces ham slices
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Place the 6 eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook the eggs for 10 minutes.
Once the eggs are cooked, transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
Carefully remove the yolks from the egg halves and place the yolks in a mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving platter.
Mash the yolks with a fork until crumbly. Add the avocado, mayonnaise, lime juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a smooth filling.
Finely chop the parsley and chives, and stir them into the egg filling mixture.
Spoon or pipe the green filling into the hollowed-out egg whites, evenly dividing the mixture among all 12 halves.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the ham slices and cook until crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and let cool slightly, then crumble or chop into small pieces.
Garnish the deviled eggs with the crispy ham and a sprinkle of paprika. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
