Serve the soup hot, ladled into bowls with the chicken meat on the side, drizzled with olive oil and cracked pepper. Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, pull the meat from the bones and discard the skin. ![]() The eggs will gently cook in the heat of the soup. After 5–10 minutes, ladle a spoonful of the soup into the egg mixture to temper it, then slowly stir the soupy egg mixture into the rest of the soup. Lightly beat the yolks and fold into the egg white with the lemon juice. ![]() While the broth is cooling, separate the egg whites, reserving the yolks, and whisk up the egg white to form soft peaks. Cook until the rice is soft and starting to fall apart (approximately 10 minutes). Pour the strained broth into a pot, add the rice, season again with salt and pepper and bring the liquid to the boil. Remove the chicken and vegetables from the broth and strain the broth through a mesh sieve, being careful not to burn yourself. When the meat starts to fall away from the bones, the chicken is done. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites to soft peaks. Add the orzo or rice to the pot with the chicken stock and cook until al dente, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the chicken breasts and then lower to a simmer. Turn the heat down to a simmer and cook the chicken for about 1¼ hours, skimming off the foam regularly. Directions In a large stockpot, bring the chicken stock to a boil. Place on a high heat, put the lid on and bring the water to the boil. Push the chicken down to the bottom of the pan with your hands, add the onion, carrot and celery, pour in the water (enough to cover the chicken) and season liberally with salt and freshly ground black pepper. To prepare this traditional Greek soup, thoroughly wash the chicken and place in a really deep pan or large pot. ![]()
