Do you have a ton of leftover eggs from the holiday weekend? Transform your hard-boiled eggs into some seriously delicious Sriracha Deviled Eggs! Topped with do chua, cilantro, sliced chilies, and a sprinkle of black sesames seeds, these are not your mother’s deviled eggs. These babies pack some punch! Shortly after I took the above photo, I turned my back (just for a second) to grab a dish. Let me preface this by saying, I have never seen my dog, Arlo, grab food off of the counter – not even when he was a puppy. So you can image my surprise when I turned around and I saw my dog… my giant freakin’ dog, with his paws up on the counter devouring all of the eggs I had just so careful shelled. I couldn’t believe it! Out of all of the things I’ve left on the counter (chicken, steak, juicy hamburgers) he never touched them. For whatever reason, my dog digs the eggs. I made more eggs, this time keeping a close eye on my dog/egg thief. I styled, plated, (ate one… yum!) and began to photograph them. As I was standing on my step stool, hovering over the Sriracha Deviled Eggs and looking through the veiwfinder of my camera, I saw a big black nose inching its way into view. Part of me wanted push his nose away, say ‘NO’, and look at him like he just about lost his mind. But then I thought… click.

This is the fanciest deviled egg I’ve ever seen! Definitely not my mother’s! And anything with Sriracha has my vote!! Love it!
hapagirl says
Thanks, Annie! Sriracha and eggs is like a match made in heaven 🙂

These are so attractive and if they were at a party I attended, I’d stand next to this plate. 🙂

Thanks, Maureen! 🙂

I love devilled eggs and it has become a tradition for me to make them every year on Easter Monday. These look fantastic with the pickled veg and the sriracha… I can hardly blame Arlo for wanting to steal them!
hapagirl says
Thanks, Allie! The do chua really compliments the spicy Sriracha perfectly! I’m actually pretty surprised they weren’t too spicy for Arlo 😉
Marissa | Pinch and Swirl says
Spicy deviled eggs are my absolute favorite! These looks awesome. And I can’t believe your dog / egg stealer!!! What a stinker… At least he has good taste. 😉
hapagirl says
He really is a stinker! But I love him anyway 😉 I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw that giant nose of his in my viewfinder.
Melissa @ Bits of Umami says
Okay stahp. That last photo with Arlo’s little head in it is just too much cuteness. These eggs look absolutely amazing. Your toppings are perfect. And lessbehonest adding sriracha to anything is just a done deal. My family likes to make fun of me and say I’d put it on my cereal…….. let’s just say frosted flakes has never tasted better.
hapagirl says
Lol! I think you and I have the same thoughts on Sriracha. I’m actually eating some leftover Spaghetti Pizza with Sriracha as I write this 😛
Lynn | The Road to Honey says
Well. . .Arlo is giving your eggs the best endorsement. . .if they are good enough for Arlo. . .then they are good enough for me. I hope you tossed him another egg for being such a great model. I love the flavors you added to these eggs. Can’t wait to give them a try.
hapagirl says
HA! Right?! I know it’s my dog, and he would eat just about anything… but I still felt complimented 😉
mira says
You had me at Sriracha! I love these eggs! So cute and delicious!
hapagirl says
Lol, gotta love Sriracha 😉 Thanks so much, Mira!

Kathleen, I’m making egg salad as we speak. . but totally pinning this for later!! I love deviled eggs like this. . with a fabulous twist! I’ve made deviled eggs with gochujang and kimchi! 😛 Happy Monday!!
hapagirl says
Omg! Deviled eggs with gochujang and kimchi sounds AMAZING! Like the do chua, I bet the kimchi compliments the heat with a fabulous tang. I’m definitely trying that one!
Culinary Ginger says
I love a good spicy deviled egg I think it matches well with the creamy yolk. Lovely recipe.
hapagirl says
Thanks, Janette! I’m always a big fan of a little spicy kick 😉
Thao @ In Good Flavor says
Ha Ha!! So freaking cute! I think Arlo should make an appearance in every post 🙂 The egg looks so good! I really like the color the yolk takes on from Sriracha.
hapagirl says
Ha! That’s not a bad idea, Thao! I like it! I’ll see what I can do to include him more 😉
