Ingredients

• 6 pieces Large eggs
• 120 grams Lump crabmeat
• 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove the pot from heat and cover it with a lid. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 9-10 minutes.

Step 3

Drain the hot water and immediately transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the shells off carefully once cooled.

Step 4

Slice each egg in half lengthwise and gently remove the yolks into a mixing bowl. Place the egg white halves on a serving platter, cut side up.

Step 5

To the mixing bowl with the yolks, add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. Mash together until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Gently fold in the lump crabmeat, ensuring the mixture is evenly combined without breaking the crab into small pieces.

Step 7

Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each egg white half with the crab mixture, slightly mounding the filling on top.

Step 8

Sprinkle the stuffed eggs with chopped chives and a light dusting of paprika for garnish.

Step 9

Serve immediately, or cover and chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours before serving.
