Ingredients

12 large eggs

1 tablespoon pure olive oil

2/3 pound medium shrimp, shelled and deveined

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup finely diced red radishes, about 4 large

2 tablespoons fresh minced parsley

2 teaspoons chopped capers

1 medium shallot, minced

1 garlic clove, minced

Directions

Place the 12 eggs in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then remove from heat, cover the pot, and let sit for 12 minutes to hard-boil. Transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool completely, about 5 minutes. Once cooled, gently peel and halve each egg lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks into a bowl and set the egg white halves aside.
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 160F). Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then finely chop the shrimp into small pieces.
In a small bowl, mince the shallot and garlic clove separately. In another bowl, mash the reserved egg yolks with a fork until smooth. Stir in the mayonnaise, minced shallot, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined and creamy.
Fold the chopped cooked shrimp, diced red radishes, capers, and fresh parsley into the yolk mixture until evenly distributed. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Pipe or spoon the shrimp-yolk filling generously into each egg white half. Arrange the filled eggs on a serving platter, garnish with extra parsley and capers if desired, and serve chilled or at room temperature.

This is a strong appetizer for a Charlotte kitchen: eggs are staple pantry, shrimp is local and cheap at Publix or Harris Teeter, radishes and parsley grow year-round at any major chain, and capers show up at all six stores. The real cost is shrimp—roughly $10 to $14 per pound—which on 24 pieces means about $0.60 to $0.85 per deviled egg, so expect $14 to $20 total for ingredients; everything else is pennies. The stated 35 minutes is honest if you're buying pre-cooked shrimp and moving briskly through boiling, halving, and assembly, though fresh peeling adds five to ten minutes. This makes zero sense as a weeknight solo dinner but works beautifully for a Saturday cookout or office party, and leftovers sit safely in the fridge for three days, though the yolk filling softens slightly overnight.
