Paleo Whole30 Hard-Boiled Eggs with Salsa Verde

Hard-boiled eggs are a paleo staple, but pairing them with a vibrant, herb-forward sauce transforms a simple protein into something genuinely crave-worthy. The salsa verde here is built entirely from whole, unprocessed ingredients — fresh flat-leaf parsley, capers, shallot, garlic, lemon zest, and good extra-virgin olive oil — so there's nothing to second-guess on the ingredient list. That bright, briny sauce does all the heavy lifting, turning a humble egg into a dish that feels restaurant-worthy with very little effort. The technique for the eggs is foolproof too: a rolling boil, then off the heat and into an ice bath, which gives you that perfectly set but not rubbery yolk every single time. Spooned generously over halved eggs, the salsa verde soaks into the whites just enough to make every bite punchy and satisfying. It works equally well as a quick snack, a protein-packed lunch, or an impressive appetizer when you're feeding a crowd that eats clean. Keep a jar of the salsa verde in the fridge and you'll find yourself putting it on everything.
