Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Bring broth to a boil in a 4-quart pot over medium-high heat, about 3 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in rice and shredded chicken. Simmer uncovered until rice is tender, about 10 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Whisk eggs in a small bowl until pale and frothy, about 30 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Squeeze lemon juice into the whisked eggs and stir to combine.

  5. Step 5

    Remove pot from heat. Slowly drizzle the lemon-egg mixture into the soup while stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

  6. Step 6

    Stir in fresh dill. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.
