Ingredients for spicy deviled eggs
These deviled eggs with sriracha are a perfect balanced bite of creamy, spicy, and savory. Here is everything you need to make a batch.
- hard boiled eggs: the star of the show. You will need six (6) hard boiled eggs for this recipe. My favorite way to prepare these eggs is by using the Instant Pot.
- mayonnaise: to mix and make creamy.
- mustard: I suggest plain, regular yellow mustard to compliment the sriracha sauce.
- sriracha sauce: to give these deviled eggs a tangy, spicy (but not too spicy) kick.
- spices: salt, pepper and a dash of paprika.
- bacon: adds a smoky, salty flavor that will taste delicious with the sriracha. optional if you’re vegetarian or pescatarian.
- chives: an optional garnish that’s delicious.
how to make this recipe
- Let hard-boiled eggs cool before peeling. Peel eggs, and then slice in half vertically. Transfer whites to a plate and yolks to a large mixing bowl.
- Add mayonnaise, mustard, sriracha and spices to mixing bowl. Mash with a fork until very smooth. If it needs more moisture to become smooth, add a little extra mayonnaise or a splash of white vinegar to thin out, as needed.
- Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the yolk mixture into the egg white halves.
- Top with crumbled bacon and chives, and a drizzle of sriracha.
Can I substitute the bacon with something else?
Absolutely! While bacon adds a delicious, savory element – and texture to these sriracha deviled eggs, you can customize the recipe very easily:
- Try substituting the bacon with finely chopped cooked ham, crispy prosciutto bits, or even diced avocado for a vegetarian option (avocado and sriracha pair really well together)
- Alternatively, there have been times I have not had meat on hand, and just made the spicy deviled egg filling and did not top with any pork products and the results were still delicious and elevated tasting!
Can I make these deviled eggs ahead of time?
You can prepare the hard-boiled eggs and also cook the bacon in advance. Store the eggs in the refrigerator and the cooked bacon in an airtight container, 1-2 days ahead of time. When you’re ready to serve, you can assemble the sriracha deviled eggs by mixing the filling and make according to the recipe instructions.
How long can I store leftover deviled eggs?
Store leftover bacon deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. However, for the best quality and texture, try to enjoy them within 24 hours – if possible!

Ethel @eatingininstead says
Love this! Bacon and Sriracha are two of my all-time fav ingredients!
Nichole says
You can’t go wrong!
Ala says
This is so brilliant! Seriously, my friends are all OBSESSED with sriracha, but the only way I can get behind it is if it’s in another kind of dressing or sauce. Mayo (or lightened-up!) sounds amazing right about now. Love these!!
Nichole says
That is what it took for me, since Sriracha on its own is a no-no for me!
The Ninja Baker says
Very interesting indeed, Nichole. It is comforting that despite a few differences in beliefs – some foods are essential to both traditions….Speaking of traditions, I think sriracha may start making a regular appearance in my deviled eggs!
Constance Smith says
We started doing Seder a few years ago. It is beautiful and meaningful.
Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis says

Terri Steffes says
These sound delish! Love the ingredients, so I will definitely be adding them to my list to try!

Bacon plus a little heat??! These deviled eggs sound spectacular!

I’ve been waiting for this one to go live, and not just to collect the direct link! I could hardly wait to see how you combined two of my favorite things into one divine deviled egg. Can’t wait to try them, Nichole!
