Ingredients

• 6 pieces large eggs
• 4 slices bacon
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chives or green onions (finely chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a single layer in a medium-sized pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Once the water boils, turn off the heat and cover the pot. Let the eggs sit for 10 minutes to cook through.

Step 3

While the eggs are cooking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble the bacon once cooled.

Step 4

After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool them quickly. Let them sit in the cold water for at least 5 minutes.

Step 5

Peel the eggs carefully and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a small mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside on a serving plate.

Step 6

Mash the yolks with a fork until finely crumbled. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, paprika, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 7

Gently fold in half of the crumbled bacon into the yolk mixture.

Step 8

Transfer the yolk mixture to a piping bag or use a spoon to evenly fill the cavities of the egg whites.

Step 9

Top each devilled egg with the remaining crumbled bacon and a sprinkle of chopped chives or green onions.

Step 10

Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve (up to 4 hours for best results).
