Lemon Rice and Chicken Soup

This is a Greek style soup and last time I had this was a couple months ago when I had lunch with my mother at a Greek restaurant and absolutely loved it.  It's such a nice and light soup, and I just love anything with lemon in it.  This is a really simple and flavorful soup, that you can whip up in a few minutes.  Here's what you'll need:

  • 4 cups of chicken broth
  • juice of one lemon
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup of long grain rice
  • 1 cooked chicken breast, cubed in small pieces
  • 1/4 cup of dill 
  • salt and pepper to taste
Combine broth and rice in saucepan and bring to simmer.  Cook about 15 min to 20 min until rice is done. Add chicken to saucepan.  In a bowl beat the eggs and add the juice from one lemon, mix well.  Add one cup of soup to the egg/lemon mixture then add this mixture to the soup.  Add the dill and cook for another 4 minutes.  Enjoy!
