Avgolemono Soup For 2 Recipe


Avgolemono Soup For 2 Recipe
I loved this Greek soup at a restaurant in my youth. This is my easy version of it for 2. Double for 4. Too easy to be this good! I use it as a main dish served with olive bread & green salad.

Ingredients
  • 2 TBS butter
  • 2 chopped green onions
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 2/3 cup Basmati rice
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • Juice of 1 large lemon
  • Plenty of fresh-ground black pepper

Directions
  1. In a 4-cup pot, sauté the chopped green onions in the butter 2-3 minutes or until soft but not browned.
  2. Add the broth and bring to a boil.
  3. Stir in the rice, bring again to a boil, and turn the heat down to simmer.
  4. While the rice is cooking, beat the 2 eggs with the lemon juice in a small bowl.
  5. When the rice is al dente (about 18-20 minutes), take about 1/2 cup of the hot broth and stir it into the egg mixture.
  6. Now stir the whole bowlful back into the soup, stirring constantly.
  7. Heat through until soup is hot, creamy and slightly thickened but don't let it boil.
  8. Season with freshly ground black pepper and serve hot.
