Fried Deviled Eggs Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Boil the Eggs

   Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil and then cover the pot, removing it from heat. Let it sit for 12-15 minutes, then transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool.

2. 2

   Prepare the Filling

   Once the eggs are cool, peel them and cut them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and paprika until smooth.

3. 3

   Stuff the Egg Whites

   Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites. Set aside.

4. 4

   Prepare for Frying

   Set up a dredging station with three bowls. Place flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second bowl, and panko breadcrumbs in the third bowl.

5. 5

   Coat the Eggs

   Dip each stuffed egg half first in flour, then in beaten eggs, and finally in the panko breadcrumbs to coat them evenly.

6. 6

   Fry the Eggs

   Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated egg halves and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

7. 7

   Serve

   Sprinkle with additional paprika if desired and serve warm.
