Cook the bacon

• Lay the bacon on a baking tray and bake at 200 °C until firm and crisp.
• Pair up some strips for firmer pieces that won't break when stuffed.

Make the seafood butter sauce

• Melt the unsalted butter in a bowl.
• Add the smoked paprika, lemon pepper, onion powder, minced onion, Old Bay, Mrs. Dash, garlic salt, extra paprika and brown sugar.
• Microwave until the butter is melted and the seasonings are combined, or heat gently on the stove.

Cut a slit in each egg

• Make a small slit about one inch wide in each hard-boiled egg.
• Go as deep as possible without piercing through the other side.

Stuff the eggs with bacon

• Insert the narrower end of a bacon strip into the slit of each egg.
• Work slowly and steadily so the egg doesn't break.

Sauce and garnish

• Spoon the seafood butter sauce over each stuffed egg.
• Top with a little chopped parsley and serve.
