Eggs and Filling
- 12 hard-cooked eggs, peeled
- 45 ml mayonnaise
- 15 ml capers, finely chopped
- 15 ml fresh dill, chopped
- 15 ml fresh chives, chopped
- 10 ml grainy mustard
Bacon
- 6 slices double-smoked bacon, rind removed and halved
Assembly
- 3 leaves iceberg or leaf lettuce
- 12 slices cocktail tomatoes
- 12 cocktail picks
- Chopped fresh dill and everything bagel seasoning for garnish (optional)
- Cook the eggs: Place eggs in the bottom of a small pot and cover with cold water. Heat until boiling, then remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 9 minutes. Immediately transfer eggs to an ice bath to stop cooking. Drain, peel, and set aside.
- Cook the bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat and cool.
- Prepare devilled egg filling: Slice each egg in half lengthwise and gently remove yolks into a bowl. Add mayonnaise, finely chopped capers, dill, chives, and grainy mustard. Mash ingredients together until well combined.
- Stuff egg whites: Fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, dividing it equally among all halves.
- Assemble sliders: Place a cooked bacon slice on top of 12 stuffed egg halves, breaking the bacon to fit if necessary. Add a small piece of lettuce and a slice of tomato over the bacon.
- Complete sliders: Top each slider with the remaining stuffed egg halves and secure with a cocktail pick.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the sliders with chopped fresh dill and everything bagel seasoning just before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
Notes
- For perfectly hard-cooked eggs, avoid overcooking by sticking to the 9-minute resting time in hot water.
- Use double-smoked bacon for a rich, smoky flavor that complements the creamy devilled eggs.
- The dill and chives can be adjusted to taste or substituted with other fresh herbs like parsley or tarragon.
- Everything bagel seasoning adds a great texture and taste but can be omitted for a milder flavor.
- These sliders are ideal for parties or as a sophisticated finger food at brunch.
