Delightfully tangy and creamy, Pickled Onion Deviled Eggs offer a flavorful twist on the classic appetizer by incorporating vibrant pickled onions into the rich egg yolk mixture, garnished with fresh chives for an elegant finish.

Ingredients

Scale

Eggs

  • 6 hard-boiled eggs

Filling

  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup pickled onions, chopped

Garnish

  • Fresh chives for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the eggs: Peel the hard-boiled eggs carefully and slice each one in half lengthwise to expose the yolks.
  2. Remove yolks: Gently remove the yolks from the egg whites and place them into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
  3. Mix the filling: Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to the yolks and mash with a fork until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Add pickled onions: Fold the chopped pickled onions into the yolk mixture to add tangy flavor and texture evenly throughout.
  5. Fill the eggs: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed egg whites, ensuring each half is nicely filled.
  6. Garnish and chill: Garnish each deviled egg with finely chopped fresh chives and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to enhance flavors and texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh hard-boiled eggs boiled for about 10-12 minutes for perfect texture.
  • For a smoother filling, use a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped to refill the egg whites.
  • Pickled onions can be store-bought or homemade for best tangy taste.
  • Refrigerate deviled eggs until serving to maintain freshness and flavor.
  • This recipe can be adapted to include other pickled vegetables for variation.
