Jalapeño Bacon Cheddar Deviled Eggs
Description
This jalapeño bacon Cheddar deviled eggs recipe is a spin on an old classic — the combination of Cheddar, bacon, and jalapeño makes everything better.
Ingredients
•
12 eggs
•
4 slices bacon
•
3 jalapeno peppers
•
1 cup finely shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
•
1/3 cup mayonnaise
•
1/4 red onion, minced
•
2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
•
1 pinch paprika, or as desired
Directions
1
Place eggs in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in water for 15 minutes. Remove eggs from water, cool under cold running water, and peel.
2
Place bacon in a large skillet; cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels; crumble when cool.
3
Remove seeds and stems from jalapeños; mince 1 pepper and slice remaining 2 peppers into 24 very thin strips; set aside.
4
Cut eggs in half lengthwise; place yolks in a bowl. Mash with a fork; stir in minced jalapeño, Cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, red onion, and mustard.
5
Place egg whites, cut side up, on a serving platter. Spoon yolk mixture into egg white halves; insert pepper strip into each yolk; sprinkle with crumbled bacon and paprika.
