This Chorizo Deviled Eggs recipe is one of my favorite appetizers to make. This delicious recipe with chorizo adds a twist with different flavors from the classic deviled eggs.
This is a fun and easy appetizer idea that is perfect for Sunday Brunch, Easter Dinner, Easter Brunch, Mother's Day or a pot luck.
The Chorizo in the deviled eggs adds a little bit of spice and smokiness that complements the eggs perfectly. Chorizo and eggs come together in this fun appetizer.

How to Make Chorizo Deviled Eggs
Step 1 - Cook eggs using a rolling boil method or instant pot. Run cold water over the eggs when done to stop them from further cooking.
Step 2 - When cooled, carefully remove white shells from eggs. Cut cooked eggs in half with a sharp knife.
Step 3 - Remove egg yolks from white halves and place in bowl. Add mayo and mustard to egg mixture and blend until creamy. Place mxiture into a piping bag or pastry bag with tip.
Step 4 - Place white haves on serving plate. Cook Chorizo in a small skillet. Drain. Add a ½ teaspoon of drained chorizo to each egg.
Then fill the egg with the egg yolk mixture.
And then add the egg yolk mixture.
Timesaving Tips
- When peeling eggs, give the egg a crack all around under running water can help loosen the membrane.
- You don't have to use a piping bag, but they sure look better for presentation
- The chorizo gives the eggs a nice flavor. I like to use beef chorizo, but you can also use pork chorizo.
- Store leftover eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Black pepper, chili powder or cayenne pepper can be sprinkled on top for a kick.
Serving Suggestions
- You can add a tiny sprig of cilantro or parsely to the top of the eggs for color.
- You can serve these with hot sauce or salsa.

True story - I was on a winery tour years ago in Napa and thought it would be nice to buy something from the gift shop, but I don't drink. So I bought a whole recipe book about deviled eggs. Delightful!
