Ingredients:
3/4 pound(s) boneless, skinless chicken breast (1 large chicken breast half) |
chopped fresh dill, for serving |
coarse salt and ground pepper |
3 large eggs |
1/3 cup(s) fresh lemon juice (from 2 lemons) |
1 cup(s) long grain white rice |
7 cup(s) low sodium chicken broth or water |
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine broth and chicken; bring broth to a gentle simmer over medium. Reduce heat slightly so liquid is moving but not simmering; cook until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and let rest until cool enough to handle. Shred into bite size pieces.
2. Bring broth to a rapid simmer; add rice and cook just until tender, 16 to 18 minutes. Return chicken to pot. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs until frothy; whisk in lemon juice. Whisking constantly, slowly pour 1 cup hot broth into egg mixture. Immediately whisk egg mixture into pot. Season soup with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, garnished with pepper and dill.
