Place the eggs in a medium-sized pot and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove the pot from the heat, cover, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs once they are cool enough to handle.
Slice each egg in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks. Place the yolks in a mixing bowl and set the egg whites aside on a serving platter.
Using a fork, mash the yolks until they are crumbly and fine in texture.
Add the sardine fillets (drained), mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the mashed yolks. Mix thoroughly until the filling is smooth and creamy.
Spoon or pipe the filling mixture evenly into the hollowed-out egg whites.
Garnish each deviled egg with a sprinkle of paprika and chopped parsley, if desired.
Chill the filled eggs in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving.
