02 - Drain the hot water and transfer eggs to an ice bath to stop cooking and cool completely. Once cool, gently tap and peel the shells, then halve each egg lengthwise.
03 - Carefully remove yolks to a medium bowl and arrange the egg white halves on a serving platter.
04 - Add peanut butter, mayonnaise, soy sauce, sriracha, lime juice, honey, grated ginger and garlic powder to the yolks. Mash and stir until smooth and well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
05 - Spoon or pipe the peanut mixture into the cavity of each egg white half, dividing evenly among the 12 halves.
06 - In a small bowl, stir together diced cucumber, chopped cilantro, red onion, rice vinegar, sugar and a pinch of salt until the sugar dissolves.
07 - Place a small spoonful of the cucumber relish atop each filled egg half.
