Instructions

  1. Bring the broth to a boil in a large stock pot. Add the rice to the pot and cook till its tender, 15-20 minutes.
  2. Whisk the eggs and lemon juice together in a separate bowl until smooth.
  3. Temper the egg mixture by adding about a cup of hot broth to the egg mixture and whisking consistently. This gently heats the eggs.
  4. Slowly pour the tempered egg mixture back into the pot with the rice. This will help thicken the soup.
  5. Add the chicken to the soup, combine and heat through.
  6. Season with the fresh dill, garlic, Italian Herbs, salt, and pepper.
  7. Taste and add more salt as needed. Drizzle some olive oil on to garnish or more fresh herbs.
