I had lemon chicken orzo soup at a Diner one day and absolutely loved it. I found this recipe online but never tried it yet. Hopefully its good. (I estimated the prep time because it really didnt say.) Ingredients:
8 cups chicken stock |
3/4 cup orzo pasta |
1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch thick pieces |
3 eggs |
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice |
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest |
salt and white pepper |
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley |
Directions:
1. In a large Saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a boil.
2. Reduce heat to medium-low and add orzo.
3. Cook uncovered until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.
4. Five minutes before pasta is done, add chicken.
5. Whisk eggs while adding lemon juice.
6. Stir in zest. Whisking constantly.
7. slowly pour a ladle of the hot stock into the egg mixture to temper.
8. Reduce heat to low and while stirring add the Egg mixture to the Soup(Soup should thicken slightly).
9. Add Salt and Pepper and Garnish with Parsley.
