🥚 Ingredients
I simplified this recipe so that you can make this within minutes and save time prepping these deviled eggs.
You will need 8 ingredients and about 20 minutes tops to make your own batch of deviled eggs with jalapeños.
- Hard Boil Eggs
- Jalapeño Peppers — with or without seeds, chopped. Remove the seeds and they will be not all that hot. The heat highly depends on the jalapeño pepper.
- Mayonnaise — From the jar or with homemade 5 minute mayo.
- Onion Powder
- Salt & Black Pepper, ground.
- Hot Pepper Sauce — I use Tabasco, but you can use your favorite hot sauce instead.
- Cilantro — aka coriander, fresh to garnish.
You can choose to add mustard and candied crunchy bacon pieces to the filling. I skipped that, to simplify the recipe for you, but your deviled eggs will definitely taste better!
Tip: Use pickled Jalapeños for a special flavor twist!

🍴 Serving Ideas
Deviled eggs are quintessential party bites! They make a popular appearance during Easter, but also on other holidays, such as Christmas and New Years.
If you, or your guests, adore spicy hot food, add the Jalapeño infused cream cheese dip and the spiced Avocado Crostini Bites.
Cheese dips and creamy avocado balance out and compliment the chili heat really well.
🍱 Storage
Deviled eggs in general should be consumed quickly. Especially, because they are often left out on a buffet or platter to entertain your guests.
Therefore, keep them for up to 2 days in your fridge, refrigerated.
These don't freeze well at all. Instead, I recommend prepping your jalapeño deviled eggs a few hours or the night before your party.
