Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs recipe that turns classic deviled eggs into a flavorful elegant appetizer everyone will love

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 ounces smoked salmon, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise (preferably full-fat)
  • 1 tablespoon sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill
  • 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika, plus extra for garnish
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Capers, for garnish (optional)
  • Extra dill sprigs for serving (optional)
  • Instructions

  • Hard boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then immediately turn off the heat and cover the pan. Let the eggs sit, covered, for 10-12 minutes.
  • Cool and peel: Drain the hot water and plunge the eggs into an ice bath for at least 5 minutes. Gently tap the eggs on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel.
  • Prepare the filling: Slice each egg in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks into a bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Fold in the smoked salmon and dill gently.
  • Fill the egg whites: Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white half with the salmon-yolk mixture.
  • Garnish and serve: Sprinkle a pinch of smoked paprika on top, add a few capers if desired, and finish with a small dill sprig. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
