Chipotle Deviled Eggs
Smoky with a bit of spice, these chipotle flavored deviled eggs are a delicious variation one the classic. A bit of cilantro adds freshness but you can swap it out for chives if you prefer.
Servings: 6
Calories: 247kcal
Ingredients
- 12 large eggs
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise or homemade aioli
- 2 tablespoons butter or butter flavored coconut oil at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard optional
- 2 teaspoons chipotle in adobo sauce pureed (I like to blend up a can’s worth and freeze it flat in a ziplock bag, then just break off pieces as needed)
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- salt and freshly ground pepper
- paprika for garnish, optional
- cilantro for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Place the eggs in medium saucepan, cover with 1 inch of water, and bring to boil over high heat. Remove pan from heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes. Fill a medium bowl half full with cold water and add 1 tray of ice cubes. Transfer eggs to ice water bath and let sit 5 minutes.
- Peel eggs and then slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks with a spoon, and place them in the bowl of a food processor. Set the whites aside.
- Blend the yolks, mayonnaise, butter, mustard, and chipotle until smooth in a food processor. Season with lime, salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip, or use a plastic sandwich bag with the tip of one corner snipped off.
- Trim a sliver off the bottoms of the cooked egg whites before you fill them to keep them from rolling.
- Pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites and serve with paprika and cilantro as a garnish, if desired.
