- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Paprika, for garnish
- Extra chives, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Hard Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a single layer in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot, remove it from the heat, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
- After that, transfer them to an ice bath to cool for about 5 minutes.
- Prepare the Filling: Once the eggs are cooled, gently tap them to crack the shells and peel them under running water for easier removal. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl.
- Make the Mixture: Add the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped chives, salt, and pepper into the bowl with the yolks. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to your taste.
- Fill the Eggs: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves. For a decorative look, you can use a piping bag with a star tip.
- Garnish and Serve: Dust with paprika and sprinkle additional chives if desired. Serve them chilled or at room temperature.
Variations and Tips:
- For a spicy kick, add a dash of hot sauce or a minced jalapeño to the yolk mixture.
- You can substitute the Greek yogurt with avocado for a creamy and dairy-free alternative.
- For added flavor, mix in crumbled feta cheese or a sprinkle of dill to the filling.
- If you want to prepare these ahead of time, store the filled eggs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days before serving.
- Try experimenting with different herbs like parsley or cilantro to add variety.
