Chili Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• For the deviled eggs: Put the eggs in a large saucepan and cover with water. Heat over high heat until the water begins to boil. Boil for 1 minute, cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Allow to sit for 17 minutes, then drain and transfer to an ice bath.
• When the eggs are cooled, peel and slice in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks to a medium bowl and mash with a fork until crushed. Stir in the mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, relish, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, salt and pepper and mash well. Spoon or pipe the filling (using a piping bag or resealable plastic bag) into each egg white half.
• For the topping: Top the deviled eggs with the crushed corn chips and Cheddar. Sprinkle with the chili powder and parsley.

Steps:

• In a large (preferably cast-iron) skillet, melt the butter over medium-high. Add the onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin and chili powder, stir to combine, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to stick to the bottom of the pan and turns the color of rust, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the tomatoes and both cans of beans with their liquid. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, smashing the beans lightly and stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 20 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, then season to taste with salt.
• Reduce the heat to low. If your chili is thick enough, make four divots evenly spaced in the chili and crack an egg into each divot. (If the chili is not thick enough to hold the divots, don't worry, just crack the eggs on top.) Using a fork or spoon, gently cover the whites with chili. (This helps the whites cook faster and more evenly). Season the eggs with salt and pepper, then sprinkle the chili with Cheddar. Cover and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, 5 to 7 minutes. Garnish, if desired, with cilantro sprigs. Serve with tortillas, tortilla chips or tostadas alongside.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9 inch pie plate.
• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the milk and flour, then mix in the green chilies and cheese. Pour into the prepared pie plate.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the center is set, about 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Make the chili oil: Add the shallot, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, and peanut oil to a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 215-225°F (101-107°C). Simmer for 30 minutes, until the aromatics are golden brown, but not burnt. The oil should be gently simmering, with tiny bubbles rising to the surface. If the oil gets too hot or the aromatics start to brown too quickly, reduce the heat to low.
• Add the Sichuan red chili flakes and Chinese five-spice powder to a medium, heatproof bowl. Place a fine-mesh strainer over the bowl. Carefully pour the hot oil through the strainer over the chili flakes and discard the aromatics left behind. Stir in the salt until dissolved. Let the chili oil cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. The chili oil will keep in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
• Make the egg skillet: In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of chili oil over medium heat until sizzling. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with kosher salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes, depending on your preferred yolk doneness. Carefully tilt the skillet to distribute the chili oil around the eggs and use a spoon to baste the eggs with the oil.
• Remove the skillet from heat and top the eggs with the dill, scallions, and flaky sea salt. Serve with toasted bread.
• Enjoy!
