Method
Boil and chill the eggs
- Place large eggs in a pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil; cover, remove from heat, and let stand 12 minutes. Visual cue: the water should reach a full boil before you turn off the heat.
- Chill the eggs in an ice bath for 10 minutes, then peel and halve lengthwise. Visual cue: shells should loosen easily after cooling.
Make the deviled filling and assemble
- Beat the egg yolks with Boursin garlic and herb cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and salt until smooth and creamy. Visual cue: the mixture should look uniform with no yellow streaks.
- Pipe the filling into the egg whites. Visual cue: the filling should be neat and generously mounded in each half.
- Top with fresh dill and chives for garnish and cracked black pepper. Visual cue: you should see visible green flecks and pepper specks on top.
Serve
- Chill until serving. Visual cue: the filling should be firm and cool when you plate them.
Notes
Pro tip: soften the Boursin to room temperature so the filling beats silky and pipes cleanly. Store assembled deviled eggs covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; for best texture, don’t freeze. For a lighter option, replace half the mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt for a tangier filling while keeping the same herb-and-cheese flavor.
