Yield 24 EGG HALVES

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 dozen large eggs
4 ounces packaged Spanish chorizo sausage, finely chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley, more for garnish
1/4 cup seeded, finely diced roasted red peppers, such as piquillo
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons cold water
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place eggs in a pot large enough to hold them all in a single layer. Cover by 3 inches of cold water and place on the stovetop over high heat. Once the water starts simmering briskly, reduce heat to medium high and cook for 12 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water. Let cool for 5 or 10 minutes, then peel. Slice eggs lengthwise. Remove yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Arrange egg white halves on a rimmed baking sheet. To prepare the filling, cook chorizo in a cold skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, until crisp. Meanwhile, add parsley, red peppers, vinegar, mayonnaise, mustard and water to yolks. Mash to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Use two small spoons to scoop filling into egg white halves. When ready to serve, sprinkle eggs with warm chorizo and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For a smoother, creamier filling, use a food processor or blender to blend the egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, and vinegar until light and fluffy.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the filling into the egg white halves.
  • To make the deviled eggs ahead of time, assemble them and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • For a fun and festive presentation, garnish the deviled eggs with paprika, chopped chives, or crumbled bacon.

Conclusion:

Spanish deviled eggs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion.
