Cajun Shrimp Deviled Eggs 🥚 🍤

Advertisement

Directions:

Eggs

In a large pot, arrange the eggs in a single layer. Fill the pot with water until it is about ½-inch above the eggs.

Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pot and remove it from the heat.

Let the eggs rest in the covered pot for 14 minutes. While the eggs are cooking, prepare a large bowl of ice water.

After 14 minutes, use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to the ice water. This will stop them from cooking further. Allow them to rest in the ice water for 4-5 minutes.

Peel the eggs under water and pat dry with a paper towel. Using a sharp knife, halve the eggs lengthwise. Use a small spoon to gently remove the cooked yolks. Add the yolks to a medium bowl and set the egg whites aside.

To the yolks, add mayonnaise, yellow mustard, hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, and kosher salt. Mash the yolks with a fork and then whisk to combine the ingredients until smooth.

Set the filling aside while you prepare the shrimp.

Shrimp

In a large skillet, melt butter over high heat. Add the Cajun seasoning, stirring to combine.

Spread the shrimp into an even layer in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. Be careful not to overcook to avoid a rubbery texture.

Once cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.

Assembly

Pipe (or spoon) the yolk mixture evenly into each of the egg white wells.

Top each deviled egg with a Cajun shrimp.

Sprinkle each deviled egg with a pinch of Cajun seasoning and garnish with chives.

Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Enjoy !!
