Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces bread slices
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions
Step 1
Start by boiling the eggs: Place the 4 large eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water by at least an inch.
Step 2
Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pan with a lid and remove it from the heat.
Step 3
Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes to fully cook.
Step 4
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool them rapidly for about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Peel the cooled eggs, then chop them into small pieces.
Step 6
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chopped eggs with 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise and 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
Step 7
Gently fold in 1 tablespoon of chopped chives and season the mixture with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper.
Step 8
Spread butter lightly on one side of each of the 8 bread slices.
Step 9
Spoon the egg mayo mixture evenly onto the buttered side of 4 bread slices.
Step 10
Top each with the remaining bread slices, buttered side up, to make sandwiches.
Step 11
For an optional step, toast the sandwiches on a hot skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Step 12
Cut each sandwich in half and serve immediately for best taste.
