Main Ingredients

Method

Boiling the Eggs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Eggs

    Place the eggs in a saucepan. Ensure they are not cracked and are arranged in a single layer.

  2. 2

    Add Water

    Pour 4 cups of water into the saucepan, ensuring the eggs are fully submerged.

  3. 3

    Boil the Eggs

    Put the saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to high. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, cover the saucepan with a lid and remove it from heat.

  4. 4

    Set a Timer

    Let the eggs sit in the hot water. For soft-boiled eggs, wait 6-7 minutes; for hard-boiled, wait 9-12 minutes.

  5. 5

    Cool the Eggs

    Once the timer goes off, transfer the eggs into a bowl of ice water for 5-10 minutes to halt the cooking process.

Seasoning the Eggs

  1. 6

    Peel the Eggs

    Gently tap each egg on a hard surface and peel the shell under running water for easier removal.

  2. 7

    Prepare the Seasoning

    In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili flakes.

  3. 8

    Season the Eggs

    Drizzle olive oil over the peeled eggs and then sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly across the eggs.

  4. 9

    Garnish

    Chop fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the seasoned eggs for added flavor and presentation.

  5. 10

    Serve

    Arrange the seasoned boiled eggs on a plate and serve immediately as a nutritious snack or appetizer.
