Avgolemono SoupI'm posting this from the ANC forum, where I posted this originally. It really could go in the chicken or the egg section. Or miscellaneous, because it's a soup! But mainly, it's the eggs that make it special.
Ingredients
4 cups homemade chicken stock
2 cups finely diced or shredded chicken, preferably dark meat
4 eggs
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
In a medium saucepan, bring stock to a boil. Add chicken and cook until chicken is heated through, about 3 minutes.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and lemon juice until frothy. Vigorously whisk about 1 cup of the hot stock into the egg mixture. Whisk this mixture back into the hot soup and immediately remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
This is great on a cold day, or when you're under the weather.
