Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 can (5 oz) canned tuna
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon (chopped, optional for garnish) parsley
Instructions
Place the eggs into a medium-sized saucepan and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove from heat, cover the pan, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
Carefully drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to an ice bath. Let them cool for 5 minutes before peeling.
Peel the eggs and slice each one in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside on a serving plate.
Drain the canned tuna and add it to the bowl with the egg yolks. Use a fork to break up the tuna and mash the yolks until smooth.
Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, pickle relish, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the tuna and yolk mixture. Stir until well combined and creamy.
Using a small spoon or piping bag, carefully fill the hollow centers of the egg whites with the tuna mixture.
Sprinkle the filled eggs with a pinch of paprika and chopped parsley for garnish, if using.
Cover and chill the deviled eggs in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving for the best flavor.
