Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1.5 tablespoons Creole mustard
• 1 tablespoon pickle relish
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon green onions, finely chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon smoked paprika or regular paprika (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Ensure the water is at least 1 inch above the eggs.

Step 2

Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, then cover the saucepan and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit covered for 10 minutes.

Step 3

Drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to an ice bath. Let them cool for 5-10 minutes to stop the cooking process.

Step 4

Gently peel the eggs under cold running water and pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 5

Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks, placing them in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Place the egg whites on a serving tray.

Step 6

Mash the egg yolks with a fork until they are crumbly and smooth. Add mayonnaise, Creole mustard, pickle relish, hot sauce, paprika, Cajun seasoning, salt, black pepper, and green onions. Mix thoroughly to combine.

Step 7

Taste the filling and adjust seasoning as desired, adding more salt, pepper, or hot sauce if needed.

Step 8

Using a spoon or a piping bag fitted with a star tip, fill the egg whites with the yolk mixture.

Step 9

Garnish the deviled eggs with a sprinkle of smoked paprika or regular paprika for a pop of color.

Step 10

Refrigerate the eggs for at least 20 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
