Equipment

Ingredients

6 hard boiled eggs
2 Tbsp. Mayonnaise
2-2.5 Tbsp. Sriracha sauce (Adjust per your desired spiciness level)
1 Tbsp. lime juice
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/8 tsp. ground black pepper
1/8 tsp. granulated garlic
1/8 tsp. smoked paprika
1 tsp honey

Optional

Dash cayenne pepper

Instructions

Grab your hard boiled eggs. If you haven't hard boiled them yet, I like to use my "shock method" for deviled eggs. (Place the uncooked eggs into a rolling boil, single layer in a big pot and then finish them in a bowl of ice water.)
Once hard boiled eggs have cooled completely, peel and slice eggs in half lengthwise. Reserve the whites of the cooked eggs on the side.
Pop out the egg yolks of each egg half into a medium mixing bowl.
Use a fork to mash the yolks well until as smooth as you can get it, but almost a kind of powdery /slightly wet sand consistency.
Add mayo, sriracha and remaining ingredients to the egg yolk mixture. Mash and stir till well combined. I like to use a hand mixer or food processor to cream my sriracha flavored yolks mixture.
(Taste your mix, adjust your heat level with more Sriracha here if you’d like it spicier. I judge it based on the guests I have eating these) Adjust salt and pepper as well if need be.
Once your yolk filling is ready, you can start filling your eggs. If you do not have a piping or pastry bag, use a zip top plastic bag and cut 1 small corner off the bottom of the bag. Pipe the filling into the eggs in whatever style you like. I do sort of a twist into each egg white half. You should have enough filling to be fairly generous with filling the egg whites.
Sprinkle on some smoked paprika and/or a drizzle of sriracha.
Place eggs on a serving platter in a single layer that will hold your eggs in the refrigerator till you are ready to serve them.

Notes

*Optional- sprinkle with your choice of: smoked paprika and/or green onion. Add a small ripped cilantro leaf to each egg as well.

If you don't have a deviled egg carrier or egg platter to hold your deviled eggs in place from sliding, carefully place them on a non sliding dish with some toothpicks sticking out of some and a layer of plastic wrap resting atop of the toothpicks.
