Deviled Eggs Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Hard Boil the Eggs

   Place the eggs in a medium pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove from heat. Let sit for 10-12 minutes, then transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool.

   Prepare the Filling

   Once the eggs are completely cooled, peel them and cut in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, pickle relish, minced jalapeño, salt, and black pepper to the yolks. Mash everything together until smooth.

3. 3

   Fill the Egg Whites

   Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves.

   Prepare the Topping

   In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. If desired, you can toast the panko in a pan until golden brown for extra flavor.
