Preheat a grill to medium heat (around 375°F or 190°C). If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are evenly spread and the heat is consistent.
Rinse each egg gently under cold water and pat dry. Do not crack the shells.
Place the eggs directly onto the grates of the preheated grill. Arrange them carefully to prevent rolling. Close the grill lid.
Allow the eggs to cook for 7-9 minutes, turning them gently with tongs every 2 minutes to ensure even cooking and prevent burning on one side.
After 7-9 minutes, remove the eggs from the grill. Place them on a plate and let them cool for 3-5 minutes, or until they are safe to handle.
Tap each egg gently on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel them carefully. The eggs will have a slightly smoky aroma and flavor.
Slice the eggs in half and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if using, and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your smoky, grilled eggs!
