Street Corn Deviled Eggs Recipe

Street Corn Deviled Eggs RecipeStreet Corn Deviled Eggs Recipe Time! For this month’s recipe, I decided to do something on a fun twist on a snack. Mexican Steet Corn Deviled Eggs are great and they are very easy to make. I think they are the perfect blend of two amazing snacks, all in an easy single-bite. 

INGREDIENTS

  • 12 large eggs  
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil or butter
  • 2/3 cup corn, frozen or canned (drained and rinsed)
  • 7 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup crumbled cotija cheese, plus more for garnish
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder, plus more for garnish
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro for garnish
  • Tajin for dressing eggs 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Fill a large pot with water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Carefully add the eggs to the pot and bring the water back to a boil. Cook for 12-14 minutes.
  2. About 1 minute before the eggs are ready, fill a large bowl with ice and water.
  3. When the eggs are done, carefully transfer them to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them sit in the ice bath until they’re cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes.
  4. While the eggs are cooling down, heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add frozen corn and saute for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Transfer 3 tablespoons of the sauteed corn to a small bowl and set aside to use for garnishing.
  6. When the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel and discard the shells.
  7. Slice each egg in half lengthwise and carefully scoop the cooked yolks into a bowl using a small spoon. 
  8. Add Tajin to a small plate and gently coat the inside of each egg with Tajin by placing the egg on the plate
  9. Place the egg whites on a serving plate.
  10. To the bowl of cooked yolks, add the mayonnaise, Dijon, cotija cheese, paprika, chipotle powder, chili powder, and salt.
  11. Smash and stir everything together using a fork until creamy. To get the mixture extra creamy and smooth, you can also use an electric hand mixer.
  12. Add the sauteed corn and stir it in until fully combined.
  13. Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with a large wide open piping tip, and pipe the filling into the hole of each egg white. Alternatively, you can carefully spoon the mixture into each hole instead of piping if you desire.
  14. Garnish the eggs with the reserved sauteed corn, some cotija cheese, and a dash a Tajin.
  15. Enjoy the Street Corn Deviled Eggs Recipe
