Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover them with water by about 1 inch.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer the eggs for 10 minutes.
Carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water using a slotted spoon. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
Gently tap each egg on a hard surface to crack the shell, then peel them under running water to remove the shells completely.
Slice each peeled egg in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the yolks. Place the yolks in a medium bowl and set the egg whites aside on a serving plate.
Use a fork to mash the yolks until they form a fine crumble. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Spoon, pipe, or use a small spoon to fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, mounding it slightly over the surface of the egg white.
Sprinkle the deviled eggs with smoked paprika and chopped chives (if using) for garnish.
Refrigerate the filled deviled eggs for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
