Lemon Dill Chicken Soup

Food

Ingredients

1/2 tbsp olive oil

1 large leek, white & light green parts only, thinly sliced (~216g)

1 clove garlic, minced

7 cups chicken broth

1/2 tsp salt

2 cups (170g) cooked white meat chicken, shredded

1 ½ cups (65g) kale, chopped

1 cup (194g) cooked brown rice

3 eggs

1/4 cup lemon juice

2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (or to taste)

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 ½ tsp lemon zest

1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions

Heat the oil in a large stock pot over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring frequently, until tender but not browned, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another 1 minute.

Add the broth, salt, chicken, kale & rice and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook for 10-15 minutes.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, lemon juice, dill, cornstarch & zest. Temper the egg mix by whisking in 1 cup of the hot soup, mixing constantly. Pour the bowl mix back into the soup and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until soup thickens, about 4 minutes. Stir in pepper.
