Directions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Carefully add the eggs and cook for 6 minutes (the water should cover the eggs).

- Gently break the eggshells and let them cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Peel the eggs carefully.
- Add diced onions, peppers, green onions, minced garlic into a container.
- Cut the Sunkist lemon in halves, save some to cut into small pieces, and squeeze the rest into juice.
- Mix all the marinade ingredients in one big container.
- Add the eggs, cover and marinate in refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- 9. Enjoy by cutting the eggs in half and topping with marinade.
Tips:
• Take the refrigerated eggs out 30 minutes before boiling to bring them to room temperature.
• Transfer the recently boiled eggs to an ice bath for easy peeling.
• The cooking time of the eggs depends on their sizes and the egg readiness you prefer. The recipe used larger eggs and boiled for 6 minutes for soft-boiled eggs. For semi-boiled eggs, cook them for 7 minutes; and 9 minutes for classic hard-boiled eggs.
• In addition to marinating eggs, the versatile marinade could be used for various ingredients such as cucumbers and tofu.
