Ingredients
Fried Shallots
Spicy Deviled Eggs
Instructions
Fried Shallots
- Step 1
Place the shallots in an even layer in a shallow pan. Cover with the oil (they should be fully submerged). Use more if you need to!
- Step 2
Cook over medium-low heat until the shallots are golden-brown, about 20-25 minutes. Stir often with the tines of a fork to separate the shallots. Keep a close eye, because they will cook quickly once they start to brown.
- Step 3
Use the tines of a fork to remove the shallots from the pan. Place the shallots on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up any extra oil. Sprinkle the hot fried shallots with Kosher salt and let cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Hard Boiled Eggs
- Step 4
Fill a large bowl with ice water. Then, place the eggs in a large pot. Cover with cold water by at least one inch.
- Step 5
Bring the water to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, cover the pot with a lid and slide it off of the heat. Let the eggs cook in the hot water for 12 minutes.
- Step 6
Immediately transfer the hard boiled eggs to the bowl of ice water. Let cool for about 15 minutes. Drain, dry, and store them in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Spicy Deviled Eggs
- Step 7
Peel the hard boiled eggs. Halve the eggs lengthwise, and scoop the yolks into a small bowl. Place the egg whites on a serving tray.
- Step 8
Add the mayo, Sriracha, soy sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, white pepper, and Kosher salt to the egg yolks. Using a hand mixer, beat the egg yolk mixture until it's very smooth. (Alternatively, use a fork to mash the mixture by hand until smooth.) Taste, and add more spices if necessary.
- Step 9
Spoon the yolk filling into a piping bag. Then, fill the divots in the egg whites with the egg yolk mixture. (Alternatively, you can use a spoon to fill the egg whites with the egg yolk filling.)
- Step 10
Immediately before serving, sprinkle the spicy deviled eggs with chives and the fried shallots. Enjoy!
