How To Make chicken soup with lemon and rice

• 1

  Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or soup pot over medium high heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook until the onion is translucent and the carrot is tender, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another minute.
• 2

  Add the chicken broth and rice to the pot and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes until the rice is cooked.
• 3

  While the rice is cooking, whisk the eggs and lemon juice together.

  Now take a ladle of the hot chicken broth and slowly add it to the egg mixture while whisking. Note: You want to raise the temperature of the eggs without cooking the eggs at this time.
• 5

  Add the chicken, dill, salt, and pepper to the soup.
• 6

  Now while stirring the soup slowly add the egg mixture to the soup. As the soup continues to cook it will thicken as the egg cooks.
• 7

  Taste the soup and adjust the salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

  The soup can be very thick at this point, more like a stew. I like to add more chicken broth to make it more soupy. You can add a garnish of lemon slices and fresh dill.
