Greek Avgolemono Soup with Rice

A Greek soup of chicken broth and rice, finished with egg and lemon for a smooth, slightly thickened broth.

This version of avgolemono combines chicken broth, rice, egg, and lemon. The egg and lemon juice are mixed separately and gradually tempered with hot broth before being added to the soup, helping create an even texture.
