  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic
  • ¾ cup Cotija cheese (crumbled, divided)
  • 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro (divided)
  • 2 medium jalapeño peppers (seeded and diced, divided)
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Boil the eggs in a large pot covered with water over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover and remove from heat; let sit for 14 minutes.
  2. Transfer cooked eggs to an ice bath immediately to cool.
