Perfect for gatherings or healthy snacking, this recipe requires just 25 minutes from start to finish and yields 12 perfectly portioned halves. Garnished with vibrant chives and extra dill, these deviled eggs are as visually appealing as they are delicious, catering to both heart-conscious and food-loving guests.
Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with water by at least an inch. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Once the water reaches a full boil, cover the saucepan with a lid, remove from heat, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes.
Carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for at least 5 minutes. This will make them easier to peel.
Peel the cooled eggs, cutting them in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a small mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving platter.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until they are finely crumbled. Add the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Finely chop the fresh dill and chives. Add half of the chopped dill to the egg yolk mixture and stir to combine.
Using a small spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, mounding slightly.
Sprinkle the filled eggs with the remaining dill, chives, and paprika for garnish.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Best consumed within a day for optimal freshness.
