Avgolemono soup - chicken soup with lemon froth

Submitted by: Yolanda Hatzopoulos

Ingredients:
Chicken Breasts & drumsticks or 1 whole chicken (which ever you desire)
2 chicken bouillon cubes or 1 tablespoon bouillon
1 1/2 cup rice
1-2 eggs
1-2 lemons, juice
salt to taste

Directions:
Boil chicken in big pan. Clean the top of the broth --I like to take the small sift and just pour the broth in another pan. Add chicken pieces as desired and once the broth is boiling again add 1 and 1/2 cup rice--let cook. Simmer broth. In a blender add 1-2 lemons juice & 1-2 eggs(depending on amount of soup).In the blender frappe the lemon juice & eggs -- right away add frappe lemon mix to the cooking soup. Turn off stove top and sprinkle pepper & salt to taste.
Healthy and great for those cold winter nights --serve with toast or crackers. ENJOY!
