Prepare a bowl of ice water. After cooking, transfer eggs directly into the ice bath. Let them cool completely.
Gently tap and roll each egg to crackle the shell. Peel under cool running water. Slice each egg in half lengthwise.
Remove yolks to a medium bowl. Arrange egg white halves on a platter. Mash yolks into fine crumbs. Add mayonnaise, mustard, relish, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Spoon or pipe the filling into the egg white cups. Sprinkle with paprika and fresh chives for garnish.
