Learn how to make delicious Spicy Chili Garlic Deviled Eggs. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to whip up a batch of these scrumptious deviled eggs:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh chives, chopped, for garnish

If you’re feeling adventurous, try swapping the mayonnaise for Greek yogurt or the Dijon mustard for a bit of wasabi for an extra kick. These substitutions can bring a new dimension to your deviled eggs, just as I learned to adapt and experiment in my own kitchen over the years.

Instructions

Ready to bring some spice into your life? Follow these easy steps:

  1. Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Once boiling, cover the saucepan with a lid and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 12 minutes.
  3. While the eggs are cooking, prepare a bowl of ice water. After 12 minutes, transfer the eggs to the ice bath to cool for about 5 minutes. This step ensures easy peeling!
  4. Carefully peel the cooled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a medium-sized bowl.
  5. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, chili garlic sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the yolks. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy.
  6. Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves. For a personal touch, I like to use a piping bag to create a beautiful swirl — a trick I picked up from watching countless hours of cooking shows with my husband, Marco.
  7. Sprinkle the deviled eggs with chopped chives for a pop of color and extra flavor.

And there you have it! These eggs are not only a feast for the eyes but also a delightful explosion of flavors.
