Spanish Deviled Eggs
Spanish Deviled Eggs are made by filling halved hard-boiled eggs with a creamy, flavorful mixture of egg yolks, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, finely chopped Spanish chorizo, pimientos, olives, capers, and parsley. Crispy chorizo tops each egg half, garnished with smoked paprika and extra parsley for a vibrant, smoky bite with tangy and briny accents. These eggs make a rich, savory appetizer or snack.
