Description
Deliciously creamy deviled eggs filled with zesty chipotle mayo and topped with crunchy corn and lime, inspired by traditional Mexican elote.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs (boiled and peeled)
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise (preferably Halal)
- 1 tablespoon sour cream
- 1 teaspoon lime juice (freshly squeezed preferred)
- 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
- 0.25 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
- 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese (or Queso Fresco, Halal)
- 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro (finely chopped)
- to taste salt and pepper
- extra corn and lime wedges for garnish
Instructions
- Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, cover the pot and turn off the heat. Let the eggs sit for 12-15 minutes before removing them from the water and placing them in ice water to cool.
- Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel the shells carefully. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise, and scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl.
- Into the bowl with yolks, add the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, chipotle chili powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mash everything together until it’s smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in corn kernels and crumbled feta cheese into the egg yolk mixture, being careful not to smoosh the corn too much.
- Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture.
- Sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro over the filled eggs for a pop of color. Optionally, top with extra corn for that authentic elote feel.
- Serve your Irresistible Elote Deviled Eggs with Zesty Chipotle Mayo chilled, with lime wedges on the side for that extra zing!
