Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with water, ensuring the water level is about 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes.
While the eggs are cooking, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with cold water and ice cubes.
Once the eggs have finished cooking, transfer them to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
Peel the eggs carefully and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl, setting the egg whites aside on a platter.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until they are smooth. Add the mayonnaise, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, Kalamata olives, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine, ensuring a creamy consistency.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves, dividing it evenly among the 12 halves.
Sprinkle smoked paprika over the filled eggs for garnish.
Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours until ready to serve.
