Avgolemono Soup

Ingredients

• 2 quarts chicken broth
• 1/2 cup uncooked regular rice
• 4 eggs
• 1/4 cup lemon juice

Preparation

1. Place broth in a small Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Add rice. Reduce heat; cover and cook 20 minutes or until rice is tender. Remove from heat.
2. Place eggs in a small mixing bowl; beat with a wire whisk until light and foamy. Gradually add lemon juice, beating well; add 2 cups hot soup, beating constantly.
3. Add egg mixture to soup, beating constantly. Place over low heat, and bring just to a boil. (Do not boil because soup will curdle.)
4. Ladle soup into individual serving bowls; serve warm.
