Description
Grilled deviled eggs with smoky paprika offer a unique twist on a classic appetizer. Grilling adds a subtle smoky flavor to the eggs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley or chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Carefully peel the hard-boiled eggs.
- Cut each egg in half lengthwise.
- Gently remove the yolks and place them in a small bowl.
- Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth.
- Stir in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined and creamy.
- Fill a piping bag or a small plastic bag with the yolk mixture. Cut a small corner off the bag.
- Preheat your grill to medium heat.
- Place the egg white halves directly on the grill grates. Grill for 1-2 minutes, or until you see light grill marks. Be careful not to overcook.
- Remove the grilled egg white halves from the grill and let them cool slightly.
- Pipe or spoon the yolk mixture back into the grilled egg white halves.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired.
- Serve immediately or chill before serving.
Notes
- Ensure the eggs are truly hard-boiled and cooled completely before peeling.
- Grilling time may vary depending on your grill. Watch the egg whites closely to prevent burning.
- For a deeper smoky flavor, you can use wood chips while grilling.
- You can adjust the amount of mayonnaise and mustard to your preference.
