Directions

  1. 1Shred the boiled chicken, leaving behind some of the fat for flavor.
  2. 2Add the shredded chicken back to the stock along with the rice and extra water.
  3. 3Whisk in the egg mixture to create a creamy consistency.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken
  • lemon juice
  • lemon zest
  • eggs
  • rice
  • water

Tips

  • Always use a whole chicken rather than chicken breast for the best avgolemono result, as flavor comes from the chicken fat and bone.
  • Use both the juice and zest of a lemon when whisking the eggs to add extra zing to the broth.
  • Whisk in the egg mixture to create a creamy consistency.
