Ingredients

32 ounces chicken broth

2/3 cup long grain white rice

1 cup roasted chicken, 1/2" pieces

3 large eggs

1/4 cup lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Combine broth and rice in saucepan.

Bring to a simmer (not a boil)

Cook for 15 to 20 minutes until rice is done.

Add roasted chicken to pot.

Remove from heat.

While rice is cooking, beat eggs vigorously in a bowl until frothy.

Whisk in lemon juice.

While whisking, slowly add 1 cup of broth into the egg mixture.

Whisk this mixture into the remaining broth, rice and chicken in the pot.

Cook for about 4 minutes, stirring constantly until soup thickens.

To avoid curdling, DO NOT BOIL!

The soup is ready when it coats the back of a spoon OR reaches 160 degrees F.

After removing from heat, season to taste with salt and pepper.

Garnish with parsley, if desired.

REALLY! 1/4 cup of lemon juice? Sounds like enough to make the crackers pucker. I have this marked for later perusal.

This is a very quick and easy make of a Greek soup - and we use more lemon :) hahaha

This soup is killer. We typically serve almost every soup with Lemon wedges. It is especially good in chicken soup... thanks for the recipe...

lacrenshaw 11 months, 3 weeks ago said:
Actually 4 ounces of lemon juice in 32 ounces of stock isn't that much. I hope you get to try it and end up liking it, points.

I'm a lemon fan and have been for as long as I can remember, jim. After a little settling of my holiday doldrums, I'm going to post my dad's recipe for pasatini which is a pure chicken broth with bread noodles (with lots of lemon in them!) cooked right in the stock. This is the best and my favorite soup of all time. Thanks, jim.
