How to Make Spicy Deviled Eggs

Step 1: Prepare the hard boiled eggs and make the yolk mixture.

Once your eggs are peeled, slice eggs in half and place yolks into a medium bowl and mash with a fork until evenly crumbly. Add the remaining ingredients except for the garnishes to the bowl with the egg yolks and mash until smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Pipe the yolk mixture, garnish and serve.

Set egg whites, cut-side up on work surface. Pipe or spoon yolk mixture into the well of the egg halves, dividing evenly. Garnish with smoked paprika and optional garnishes if desired. Place on a serving platter and serve immediately or cover loosely and chill.
