Greek Lemon Chicken Soup
This Greek Lemon Chicken Soup (aka Avgolemono) uses the Greek method of adding eggs to thicken the broth. It’s so fresh and delicious!
Ingredients:
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1/2 cup orzo or rice
- 3 eggs
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2-3 lemons)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh dill for garnish
Instructions:
- In a pot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer. Add the orzo or rice and cook until it's tender according to the package instructions.
- Add the cooked chicken to the pot and let it heat through.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and lemon juice until well combined.
- Take a ladle of hot broth from the pot and slowly add it to the egg and lemon mixture, whisking continuously. This helps to temper the eggs.
- Gradually pour the egg and lemon mixture back into the pot, stirring constantly to prevent the eggs from curdling.
- Continue to cook the soup over low heat, stirring, until it thickens slightly. Be careful not to let it come to a boil.
- Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the Greek Lemon Chicken Soup hot, garnished with fresh dill.
