Instructions
- Halve the boiled eggs lengthwise. Remove the egg yolks and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Set aside the egg whites for now.
- Use a fork to break up the yolks.
- Add the mustard, mayonnaise, sugar, hot sauce, and a teaspoon of the Cajun seasoning to the bowl.
- Mix until smooth.
- Chill the mixture in the fridge for about 1-2 hours.
- Add a tablespoon of Cajun seasoning to the raw shrimp and mix well.
- Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet or cast iron over medium heat.
- Arrange the shrimp in a single layer on the pan and cook for 2 minutes.
- Flip the shrimp and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Move the shrimp to a plate to stop the cooking process.
- Place the chilled yolk filling into a pastry bag fitted with a large tip.
- Pipe the yolk mixture into the empty egg whites.
- Top each egg with a piece of shrimp and a slice of pickled jalapeno, and garnish with chives.
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges, or chill for 2 hours before serving. Enjoy!

Notes
- Piping Options: Don’t have a piping bag? You can use a Ziploc bag with the corner cut off, or just spoon the yolk mixture directly into the egg whites.
- Boil Them Well: Boil the eggs for about 10-12 minutes before using them in this recipe. This way, you won’t have rubbery egg whites or overcooked yolks in your hard-boiled eggs.
- Cook Them Just Right: Avoid overcooking the shrimp - they might become rubbery instead of tender and juicy.
- Just Chill: Chilling the deviled egg filling before piping it into the egg whites will keep it from being runny.
- Serve Fresh: To maintain their flavor and freshness, keep the deviled eggs refrigerated until just before serving them.
